Metallurgical Technologies, Inc.

Company Profile
Metallurgical Technologies, Inc. (MTi) is a metallurgical engineering service laboratory specializing in forensic failure analysis of metallurgical components. We also offer testing, analysis, and consulting services. By performing a comprehensive failure analysis; the root causes of failures are identified, metallurgical problems are solved and recommendations are made to prevent future reoccurrences. Using the most advanced analytical equipment and techniques; test results are interpreted and recommendations are made by licensed professional engineers registered in the discipline of metallurgical engineering.
Manufacturers can increase productivity and profits by decreasing down time as a result of performing a root cause failure analysis of production line components. MTi provides specific recommendations to prevent recurring failures. Optimize component performance, lower rejection rates, and create higher consumer confidence by using MTi’s recommendations and quality control testing. Ensure the use of the best materials and components for each application. MTi can assist in determining the best supplier and material by comparison testing of components from different vendors or manufacturing processes.

Product Details
 | We are experts in metallurgical forensic failure analysis and engineering. Our metallurgical engineers analyze and determine the root cause of failure and make recommendations to prevent future recurrence. |
 | Corrosion is a phenomenon leading to exorbitant losses of materials, energy, and money by causing degradation of products, materials of construction, equipment, and necessitating increased maintenance. This leads to unplanned shutdowns and may even result in serious accidents. |
 | Our Scanning Electron Microscope and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectrometer (SEM/EDS) can examine and analyze samples at magnifications from 5X to 200,000X. |
 | The properties of a material and its performance in a specific application depends on its microstructure. Our metallographs (light microscopes) are capable of examinations at magnifications from 15X to 1,000X. |
 | Using our advanced metal testing capabilities and vast experience in manufacturing technology, we identify the type and cause of metal defects. |
 | Surface analyses, chemical analysis and imaging on a variety of materials are performed using a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The Scanning Electron Microscope is equipped with an Energy Dispersive Spectrometer (EDS). |
 | Dry or wet fluorescent magnetic particle examinations are performed on ferromagnetic materials to detect surface and slight subsurface discontinuities such as cracks, seams, laps, voids, or flaws. |
 | A significant amount of metallurgical engineering is needed to successfully produce sound weldments in mechanical and structural applications. |
 | Reverse engineering is the process of duplicating an item functionally and dimensionally by examining and measuring existing parts to develop the exact data (physical and material characteristics) that were utilized during original manufacturing. |
 | MTi provides Professional Engineering and Consulting Services in metallurgical engineering. Consulting with our metallurgical engineers can include our testimony in litigation cases involving forensic investigations. |
