The M&P Lab specializes in the assessment of metal and non-metal products, identification of unknown materials and failure analysis.  A host of comprehensive testing services and expertise provide a one-stop-shop for full material investigations.

Applications

Improve existing manufacturing processes

  • Qualify new or alternate raw materials for improved performance or reduced cost
  • Identify new suppliers to reduce cost or increase sourcing options
  • Qualify new processes or changes to existing processes to ensure products are delivered in-spec.

Prove or disprove liability claims with objective evidence

  • Did a supplier provide the material you specified?
  • Did the supplier provide a contaminated or out-of-spec raw material?
  • Is a customer claiming the correct cause of failure for a product that you supplied?
  • Is your supplier liable for your downtime or products you produced that were out of specification?

Rapidly troubleshoot manufacturing issues

  • Save valuable raw materials
  • Quickly identify contaminants or process byproducts
  • Reduce downtime
  • Prevent reoccurrence.

Increase speed for new material selections

  • Predict long-term behavior of materials
  • Get new products to market quicker
  • Improve manufacturing processes
  • Improve existing products.

Reverse engineering

  • Identify the materials of construction for a product that is obsolete or unknown
  • Assess potential infringement on your patents.

This process begins by discussing your problem or objective with one of our chemists, metallurgists or engineers. Together, you will decide what materials should be tested, and what tests should be performed. You do not have to know what tests are required; let our experienced analysts guide you through the discovery process.
