Failure analysis

We provide advice in specifying test requirements for the best results. We offer development of test concepts and test specifications according to your needs. Our decades of experience in failure investigation of mechanical components enable us to design load situations and measuring points as efficiently as possible.

We carry out extensive failure analysis including sampling, metallography, testing and interpretation. You will receive a court-proof documentation of the results.
