Failure Analysis
Failure analysis and prevention are important functions to any manufacturer, whether the failure occurs in manufacturing or in the field. It is critical to understand the root cause of the failure to prevent future occurrences, and/or improve the performance of the device, component or structure.
Specific combinations of analytical methods are selected by our scientists and engineers to solve each unique failure analysis project. Failure analysis is an important component of quality control, customer satisfaction, accelerating testing programs and product lifetime tests.
We can analyze failure events for:
- Plastics
- Rubbers
- Bioabsorbable materials
- Coatings and protective films
- Laminated or metalized products
Benefits
- Avoid repeat failures
- Minimize support costs
- Ensure supplier compliance to quality commitments
