Applications

Raceway and roller hardness, case depth, roundness and roughness determine bearing life and noise.

Tooth-surface hardness and effective case depth govern load capacity; metallography confirms process stability.

Hardness, decarburization, tensile strength and proof load are the highest-volume checks — speed and traceability matter.

Hardness and decarburization control fatigue life; thin sections are sensitive to test-force selection.

Hardness after quench and temper, case depth and structural uniformity drive die life and part surface quality.

HRA hardness, coating thickness and adhesion of cemented carbide decide tool life and surface finish.

Graphite morphology, nodularity and matrix structure determine casting performance; hardness distribution reflects cooling.

Flow lines, grain size and hardness uniformity verify forging practice and subsequent heat treatment.

Case depth, diffusion layer and microstructure are the deliverables of heat treatment; hardness gradients are the evidence.

From tap chemistry to finished mechanical properties, steel demands full traceability — OES and UTM are standard.

Aluminium, copper, titanium and their alloys are process-sensitive; thin sheets test force selection and preparation skill.

Hardness across weld and HAZ reflects welding practice; metallography reveals cold cracking and soft zones.

From incoming steel to heat-treated parts, gears and knuckles — hardness and metallography are the main line checks.

Battery trays, electrodes, motor cores and power modules — joining quality and mechanical performance are the focus.

Axle, wheel, rail and brake-disc hardness plus NDT are safety-critical with strict acceptance records.

Low-temperature impact, weld hardness and corrosion protection are classification-society acceptance points.

Teeth, tracks, pins and structures work under heavy wear — hardness and wear-layer thickness govern life.

Material verification, weld hardness and NDT are statutory inspection items requiring traceable records.

Material ageing, hardness and metallographic re-verification demand stable instruments and long-term records.

Density, hardness and anisotropy of printed parts determine whether they can replace conventionally made ones.

Packaging, PCB and precision structures need non-contact, high-magnification, automated judgment.

Mechanics and reliability of wafers, cells and modules; lamination and frame adhesion are common failure points.

Implant, instrument and stainless hardness, corrosion resistance and surface quality are regulated and traceable.

Vickers hardness, fracture toughness and surface flaws are the baseline data for brittle materials.

Superalloys, single-crystal blades and composites often need in-situ testing above 1000 °C.

Turnkey labs, teaching systems and materials characterization — openness, extensibility and data handling matter.

Accredited labs demand traceability, repeatability and uncertainty budgets — reference blocks and calibration must be complete.

High-volume, low-value hardware inspection needs simple operation, fast cycle and few false calls.
