    Chemical Analysis & Material Identification

    Two (2) state of the art spectrometers – Latest in the field of chemical analysis.

    One LECO Carbon & Sulfur Analyzer  

    With two state of the art spectrometers and LECO carbon/Sulfur analyzer we are fully capable of performing chemical examination on your materials including all types of metals. Our standard reports include all main elements in the material and about 10 additional residual elemental composition found in your material. We have in our laboratory all types of standards (low carbon, alloy steel, stainless steel, tool steel, copper alloys, aluminum alloys, cast iron, titanium and specialty steels) to check your material against. We have the capability to make sure the machines are calibrated and validated prior to running your materials for the most accurate results. No matter what the material is we can test it as long as it is metal. No matter what the shape of the material is we have equipment to anneal it, flatten it and grind it if needed. We also have the capability and fixturing to test wire samples. For small quantities of material including chips or very small components we ask you typically to provide us with about 2 grams of weight or more. Typical sample, however, is a minimum of 1/2" by 1/2" flat surface.

    Our capabilities include:

    Plain Carbon Steels

    Low Alloy Steels

    Stainless Steels

    Tool Steels and Maraging Steels

    Titanium Alloys

    High Strength Specialty Alloys

    Nickel Base Alloys

    Copper Base Alloys & Zinc Alloys

    Aluminum Base Alloys

    Cast Irons
