Precision and Expertise in Sample Preparation

Sample Collection and Metallographic Section Preparation

  • High-quality serial sectioning with cold or hot embedding
  • Specialized preparation of thin- and thick-film coatings
  • Precise sample preparation/targeted preparations
  • Chemical or thermal etching and physical contrast enhancement, e.g., sputtering
  • All material classes, e.g., steels, aluminum and titanium alloys, non-ferrous metals, Li-ion batteries, hard/soft magnets,
  • ceramics, ferrites, composites, GFRP, CFRP, polymers
  • Samples from components or entire assemblies, e.g., from engines, tools, printed circuit boards, actuators, sensors,
  • components with soldered and welded joints
  • Materialographic analyses with expert evaluation, delivered directly as presentation-ready documentation
