Hardness Testing and Spectrometry

Hardness testing makes it possible to verify the mechanical characteristics of metallic materials and the correct execution of heat treatments.

Spectrometry analyzes the chemical properties of the material without altering its structure and completes the inspection framework.

Hardness tests determine the resistance capacity of metallic materials under mechanical stress and are essential to verify the correct execution of heat treatments.

Spectrometry makes it possible to analyze the chemical properties of materials without compromising or altering their structure, supporting material identification and compliance checks.
