[LIVONIA, 4/20/2018] — JTL America, a trusted expert in laboratory testing, provides metallography testing services for various industries.

Metallography Testing Uses

Ever since the Industrial Revolution, the demand for objects crafted from metal has increased. This rise in demand also heightened the need for metallography testing.

Metallography testing covers various industries from aeronautics to medicine. It determines the physical structure and composition of metals. By analyzing the metallographic microstructure of a material, metallography testing can help determine whether a product meets quality control standards. It can also help pinpoint why certain products fail, and in some cases, how they can be improved.

JTL America provides metallography testing services that meet all specialized testing needs such as materials characterization, failure analysis fractography, and decarburization heat testing. Their technicians can determine the micro structural characteristics of specimens, reveal internal and surface flaws, and ensure that clients conform to required specifications.

Metallography Testing Tools

In order for metallography testing to be accurate, various instruments are used, each designed for a particular test. An example of this is electron microscopy. Electron microscopy examines metals by using finely focused beams of energetic electrons.

There are two types of electron microscopy, transmission and electron. JTL America offers the latter. In addition to that, the engineers of the company also use advanced technology for a wide range of macroscopic and microscopic examination methods to provide detailed magnification of small samples or areas of interest.

About JTL America

JTL (Japan Testing Laboratories) America was formed in December 2017, after the collaboration between A-kit America and Knight Mechanical Testing resulted in the former’s acquisition of the latter. Its vision is to meet all the testing needs of all industries. If you would like to know more about the company and their services, visit their website https://jtlamerica.com/.
