Metallurgical Laboratory

Giving you advanced testing and consultation services for you tool steel grades.

Our Metallurgical Laboratory team supports you with on failure analysis by carrying out detailed field failure investigations, there by suggesting corrective actions based on Evidence-Based Approach.

Various metallurgical inspection carried out are:

  • Conducting regular metallographic Inspection for Tool Steels / HSS taken up for heat treatment. Providing metallographic structure with reports for samples given by customers as a specific requirement ..
  • Providing micro graphs for micro structure study, decarb layer measurements, grain size measurements, macro examinations and inclusion ratings.
  • Field technical complaints will be taken up to the investigation of steel / HSS having more focused on delivering application based solutions carried out with the state of the art equipment in our technical services.
  • All metallurgical measuring equipment is backed up with standard certification sample of cross verification for the specific grades.
  • The metallurgical measuring equipment is an annual maintenance to fulfill the Quality Management System requirements.
