Failure Analysis
Material integrity is critically important in medical devices. Any failure calls for an urgent and thorough response to ensure the defect is corrected. Our team will provide the accurate results and the speed you need to get back on track quickly. We are equipped to provide an array of non-destructive and destructive tests to pinpoint the root cause of the failure and any contributing factors. Our deep understanding of testing and inspection — and state-of-the-art equipment — ensures highly accurate results. With decades of collective experience, our experts know which techniques will best meet your unique challenge.
Our expertise spans an array of laboratory non-destructive testing (NDT) methods — such as Ultrasonic Testing (UT) or Liquid Penetrant Testing (PT) — to examine and test the surface and subsurface without damaging the material. Our menu of services also includes: Digital and Conventional Radiography, CT Scan, Magnetic Particle Testing, Weld Inspection and Helium Mass Spectrometry.
