Metallographic Examination

Investigate the microstructure and grain size of a material and provided information about the reason of a metal failure.

What is Metallographic Examination?

Metallographic examination is the study of the microstructure of metals and alloys using a microscope. It helps to reveal the internal structure, such as grain size, phases, and defects, providing valuable insights into the material’s properties, processing history, and potential causes of failure.

Why Choose Our Metallographic Examination?

A non-destructive testing technique used to examine the macrostructure of metallic materials.
It involves etching the surface of a metal sample to reveal its macroscopic features, such as grain size, inclusions and segregation.
For welds, etching a the cross section may reveal internal discontinuities, weld profile, extent of penetration and the quality of weld.
