Metallography is the fastest growing
requirement in industry today. Research and case studies show
that the product lifecycle is often attributable to properties
examined at the microscopic level. At CMTL our engineers and
technologists use the latest available Image Analysis Systems
and software coupled to our microscopes, stereo microscopes,
and hardness instruments to assure compliance to the newest
material standards.
Metallographic Inspections
Microstructure evaluation, fraction volume percent, grain
size, inclusion rating, cast iron classification,
fractography, and coating thickness.
Hardness Testing
Macro and micro hardness in Vickers and Knoop scales from 25g
to 50kg loads.
On-Site Inspections
On-Site microscopic replication, portable microscopy, and
ferrite determination are available for testing in situ.
Engineering Services and Support
Our obligation goes beyond the provision of fast accurate test
results; we also assist our customers in those instances where
consultation and interpretation may be required to better
relate information to your manufacturing process and
specifications. The staff at CMTL is a valuable resource for
our customers with production/fabrication issues, material
property determination and selection, troubleshooting, and
ultimately failure analysis.
