Additional services
sample collection
SMT material testing laboratory, thanks to its own transportation means, is able to make the pickup of the material to be tested directly from the customer. In this way, SMT can guarantee, depending on workloads, rapid sample pickup and specimen delivery service even on a daily basis.
contract workshop
Producing specimens is an operation that requires dedicated machining centers and highly professional operators: a specimen machined in the wrong position, with out-of-tolerance dimensions and with an incorrect degree of finish, leads to obtaining an incorrect result during test execution.
For manufacturing companies that need mechanical testing, all this translates into major investments in terms of equipment and skilled personnel.
The machine shop of the SMT materials testing laboratory is capable of performing all the mechanical work required to produce specimens for testing within its own laboratory, or returned to the customer.
The workshop can produce any type of specimen, including customer-specific designs, ensuring quality products delivered in a short time.
It has state-of-the-art machining centers and a sectioning area structured and equipped to obtain specimens from large and small parts.
Therefore, creating a partnership with the SMT materials testing laboratory means significant technical and economic benefits:
Elimination of costs associated with the purchase of machinery (hacksaws, machining centers) maintenance of the same
Training and cost of specialized personnel
Reduction of fixed costs (especially in case of work reduction)
Management of external inspectors
Laboratory activities are often attended by external inspectors, housed within the facility; thanks to the job manager, they are supervised independently and mostly free of charge, subject to professionalism.
The SMT materials testing laboratory can handle up to twenty external inspectors in a single workday.
