Materials Testing
— forging and gear.
Chemistry, hardness, microstructure, cleanliness, grinding-burn and crack detection, so every batch's metallurgy is proven, not assumed.

Tests Performed
Incoming material to finished part.
Chemistry
Optical emission spectrometry and XRF on every incoming heat.
Hardness
Brinell, Rockwell and auto-Vickers; case-depth traverses after heat treatment.
Microstructure
Digital microscopes with image analysis for grain size, decarburisation and case structure.
Cleanliness
Millipore-type residue testing for transmission-critical parts.
Grinding burn
Nital-etch burn testing on ground gears.
Crack detection
Magnetic particle inspection on safety-critical forgings.
Material Range
