Metallurgical Laboratory

Conducting hot working simulations, differential thermal analysis and dilatometric tests are all a part of this lab. We have proven our competence in the fields of heat treatment, and working simulations, by producing TTT and TTA curves, and conducting deep freezing simulation, expansion coefficient analysis and recrystallization testing. Computer supported heat treatment instructions in a data bank are also available.

Physics Laboratory



Our service package includes measuring physical properties such as ferrite content, conductivity, resistance, and permeability of low and high alloyed materials, non-ferrous metals and their alloys. It also includes electric measurement of non-electric properties. Something which is particularly important is the testing of soft magnetic materials and stress-strain analysis using strain gauge technique and x-ray diffraction analysis (retained austenite content, phase analysis, residual stresses).

Chemical analysis



Inorganic chemical analysis and the certification of metal and non-metallic materials, particularly steel, non-ferrous alloys, pig iron, ore, and charge materials as well as by-products. Our strength lies in analyzing the elements of high-alloyed special materials and process materials in conjunction with the production thereof and in the field of extreme trace contents.
