Why do a Compostional Test?
To find out waht the material is and also its Grade.
All Materials are made of elements in the periodic table, like steels which are alloys of iron, carbon and manganese. By adding other elements to steels, a wide range of alloys can be created. Using a spectrometer, we conduct a spark analysis, which is the most accurate method of measuring the chemcal composition of materials
How can this help you?
With so many differnet types of materials available today, for example, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, copper alloys, stainless steel and carbon steels, it becomes essential to know the chemical composition of the material so that the correct replacement can be found or manufactured.
The One Eighty Engineering Solution.
A foundry that manufactures brass components routinely needs to show that the alloy complies with specific standards. We were asked to conduct a routine compostional test and supply a compliance certificate.
A manufacturer who sources material from China needs to routinely conduct compositional analysis to check that the material complies with the certificate supplied, as the consequneces of using the wrong or inferior material could be severe.
