Materials analysis

Materials analysis

Comprehensive testing techniques and analytical methods are available for materials testing of modern industrial materials.

  • Fully equipped materialography for all material groups (metals, plastics, composites and ceramics)
  • Methods for testing mechanical and dynamic material properties (tensile, compression, notched bar impact and flexure tests)
  • Non-destructive material testing (ultrasonic testing)
  • Hardness testing
  • Measurement of tribological and tribocorrosive processes
  • Determination of material composition (OES, X-ray fluorescence spectrometry)
  • Light and scanning electron microscopy (SEM/EDX)
  • Thermal analysis
  • Atomic force microscopy (AFM)
  • Computer tomography
  • Heat treatments
  • X-ray diffraction (residual stress measurement and phase analysis)
