Use this for fracture analysis, contamination checks, coating inspection and surface defect investigation.

Suitable materials

Metals, polymers, composites, coatings, powders and failed components.

What to provide for a quotation

Images of the area of interest, sample size, required magnification, EDS needs and failure context.

Typical outputs

Typical outputs include high-magnification images, EDS spot or map data and engineering observations.

Standards to discuss

  • Project specific

The applicable edition, material scope and any departures are agreed in your quotation. This guide is not a claim of accreditation or certification.

TESTDOG confirms the method, scope, price and delivery time before work starts. Sample acceptance and any preparation requirements are part of that review.
