Metallography

Metallography involves the analysis of the microstructure of metals, alloys, ceramics, and composites. The insights gained from this examination are crucial for understanding the potential applications of metal alloys, particularly in reverse engineering. By interpreting the relationships among grain structure, phases, and inclusions, experts can determine the origins of material failures. Additionally, companies may need to verify whether a material possesses the necessary physical properties to meet the reliability standards required for its intended use. This verification ensures that the material can perform effectively and safely in its designated application.

In Cogent Analysis, we carry out the metallography process through cut off, mounting, grinding, polishing, and etching. The tests are performed for the following standards:

ASTM E3

ASTM A247

ASTM E45

ASTM E112

ASTM B487

ASTM B748

ASTM E1245
