Failure analysis

VDI guidelines 3822 parts 1 to 6 provide a framework for the carrying out of damage analyses. Within this framework we carry out for you individual steps, or on request, also the entire sequence of a damage analysis. Our team identifies for you not just the source of the defect but also draws up with you at your request in cooperation with you and your customers or suppliers a solution to the problem regarding the damage caused. FAQ: 

  • Determining the causes for corrosion damage
  • Assessment of fractures for, among things, hydrogen embrittlement
  •  Assessment of a component failure resulting from, for example, surface decarburization
  • Determination of the causes of adhesion problems for various components or coatings
