Calibration

IIA is an ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited laboratory with state-of-the-art equipment and offers a multitude of services, such as dimensional calibration. Our lab is environmentally controlled; temperature, humidity and dust are all managed to ensure that test accuracy is unsurpassed.

Pyrometry

IIA’s aerospace industry experience offers customers a greater understanding of major governing bodies’ requirements for pyrometry, such as meeting AMS2750E requirements and National Aerospace and Defense Contractors Accreditation Program (NADCAP) technical compliance and audits. IIA designs and builds calibration equipment and understands there are individual requisites for each examined part, for example varying heat tolerances. IIA knows exactly which calibration cycles to consider in relation to specifications, equipment types, and parts being processed.

3D Scanning

IIA offers 3D Scanning services which is the first step to an array of applications, including reverse engineering as well as scan-to-CAD comparison. 3D Scanning is flexible, efficient, and highly-accurate. Are you curious about what we can scan? Anything from a small, flat coin to the dynamic geometry of a fighter jet and everything in between. We leverage our technology to overcome the constraints of size, complexity and material.

Destructive Examinations

IIA Lab Services performs destructive testing as well, which will help in understanding and analyzing an item’s material characterization and performance. Destructive examination is also helpful for fabrication validation and to test and investigate product failure. IIA has the capability of either following specific standards for your destructive examination or tailoring testing methods in order to replicate particular service conditions. These types of tests are an integral part of engineering and critical assessments and can sometimes involve non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques as well.
