AIS Metallurgical and Testing Laboratory

Metallurgy is the study of metallic materials.  Testing is the examination of the performance of a device or material under certain conditions.  Failure is a condition where the device or material does not fulfill its purpose. Failures can appear to be obvious and may not readily be clear why it was not so obvious before the failure.  This was true in ancient of times as well as today.  Whether you need to understand a corrosion issue or a break in a weld AIS Metallurgical and Testing Laboratory can provide you with the answers you require.  Here is a list of our metallurgical laboratory services-
