// SMT: MACHINING AND MATERIAL TESTING

DISCOVER ALL THE SERVICES

laboratory

mechanical tests

Mechanical tests are tests conducted on materials to determine their mechanical properties, such as strength, hardness, elasticity and toughness. The SMT laboratory offers tensile, hardness, resilience, bend, creep and Drop Weight Tests.

LABORATORY

FRACTURE AND FATIGUE

Fracture mechanics and fatigue tests evaluate the resistance of materials to crack propagation under stress and the durability of materials under cyclic loads. The SMT laboratory offers C.T.O.D tests, KIC tests, JIC tests and fatigue tests, among others.

LABORATORY

METALLOGRAPHIC EXAMINATIONS

Metallographic examinations, subdivided into macrographic and micrographic, allow analysis of the internal structure and surface characteristics of metallic materials. The SMT laboratory offers fractographic examinations, metallographic replicas and micrographic surface measurements, which are essential for assessing defects and integrity of metallic components.

LABORATORY

FAILURE ANALYSIS

Failure analysis is a specific investigation that, through observations and testing, can identify how failure or deterioration of a component occurred and trace it back to the root cause.

LABORATORY

CHEMICAL ANALYSIS

Chemical analyses determine the composition of materials, ensuring compliance with specifications and regulations, and support the quality of materials and production processes.

LABORATORY

CORROSIONS

Corrosion testing evaluates the resistance of materials to corrosive environments. The SMT laboratory offers pitting, crevice, intergranular, C.S.C., HIC and S.S.C. corrosion tests.

Workshop

Non-destructive testing

Nondestructive testing is a set of procedures and techniques used to assess the integrity of materials or artifacts without changing or compromising their condition.
