OVER 35 YEARS OF FAILURE ANALYSIS EXPERIENCE
failure analysis LAB
Based in Dallas Texas, MES has the experience and equipment to perform a comprehensive failure analysis for metals, 聚合物, 和复合材料. Our experts will determine the root cause and provide corrective actions to prevent future failures. When a product fails, it is imperative to perform a thorough investigation. Our team of engineers and materials experts are leaders in determining root cause analysis for material failures. Our depth of materials experience and failure analysis lab allows us to evaluate failures from many different industries, determine manufacturing process problems, 检测缺陷, provide contamination analysis, and evaluate environmental corrosion effects on products.
THE MES FAILURE ANALYSIS PROCESS
Failure analysis is the process of collecting and analyzing data to determine the cause of the failure. Root cause analysis often involves an organized series of tests across multidisciplinary areas. By offering complete materials testing and forensics labs, MES can quickly solve even the most complex failures within one facility. Our laboratories include light and electron microscopy, mechanical and electrochemical testing, chemical characterization, NDT (nondestructive testing) and environmental testing. By determining the source of the failure, we can help to prevent future failures.
FAILURE ANALYSIS REPORTS
Upon completion of your failure analysis, a comprehensive Failure Analysis Report will be provided with conclusions on the root cause of failure conclusions and data supporting those conclusions. The failure analysis report may include remediation actions or recommendations to prevent future failures. Failure analysis reports typically include the following:
Description of the failed component
Background and service history
Visual inspection and fractography of failure
Mechanical, chemical and metallurgical properties data
Comparison to material specifications and control
Discussion of mechanisms that explain the root cause of the failure
Hard conclusions on root cause of failure and recommendations for improvement
THE MES FAILURE ANALYSIS DIFFEReNCE
Our failure analysis experts have performed thousands of root cause investigations over 35 years and have experience with a wide range of failure modes, materials and industries. We are focused on providing engineering opinion that allows you to make decisions and prevent future failures. Call to talk to our experts and let MES put our experience to work for you.
