A Guide to Materials Testing with 180°

Materials testing is an essential part of quality management for manufacturers. The cost of not conducting routine material tests can be severe, leading to product recall, or admission of responsibility for failed parts. With careful planning and a collaborative approach with One Eighty, this risk could be reduced.

Materials testing is also an essential part of problem solving. Manufactures and end users who experience recurrent failures need to test the material to establish the root cause of the problem and mitigate losses. At One Eighty we think that materials testing should be an integral part of manufacturers quality management system, both for preventative and corrective action.

We offer a wide range of materials testing services and are able to test any engineering material or coating including metals, plastics, composites and ceramics.
