Material performance is earned in the lab. We develop grades, prove processes and verify every property that matters for your application.
Control α/β ratio, sintering aids and particle size for the target property window.
Select press / cast / injection route to match geometry and green density.
GPS / HIP to reach full density with refined grain structure.
Test density, phase, strength, toughness, microstructure and thermal behavior.
| Property | Technique | Standard (typical) |
|---|---|---|
| Density | Archimedes | ISO 18754 |
| Phase composition | X-ray diffraction (XRD) | — |
| Microstructure / grain size | Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) | — |
| Flexural strength | 3-pt / 4-pt bending | ISO 14704 |
| Hardness | Vickers (HV) | ISO 14705 |
| Fracture toughness K₁C | SEPB / indentation | ISO 23146 |
| Thermal expansion | Dilatometry | — |
| Thermal conductivity | Laser flash (LFA) | — |
| Reliability | Weibull statistics | — |
A single strength number hides scatter. We run statistically sized sample sets and report the Weibull modulus so you can predict failure probability at your design stress — essential for bearings, turbines and medical parts.
We support customer audits, PPAP and custom characterization programs.
