Arotec exhibits Innovative Equipment for Materials Laboratories and NDT Inspection
Arotec will be at the Metalurgia trade fair with innovative solutions for materials laboratories and NDT inspection. The product line includes specimen sectioning and characterization via 2D and 3D microscopy image analysis, surface metrology and NDT (non-destructive testing) inspection. With more than 50 years’ experience, Arotec stands out for marketing cutting-edge systems and equipment, establishing strategic partnerships with renowned global companies.
The metallographic preparation equipment is fully automated, eliminating operator interference in the process and ensuring reproducibility and precision in sample preparation. High-performance inputs are used for the preparation of a wide range of alloys, precision cutting, grinding and polishing, guaranteeing reproducibility and assertiveness in metallographic analysis.
Opto-digital microscopy equipment with high-definition 3D images are advanced image analysis solutions for characterizing materials, controlling production processes and approving products, all in accordance with international standards. Industrial cameras with advanced image processing provide high fidelity, enable defect detection and detailed surface evaluation, facilitating quality analysis and production control.
STATE OF THE ART EQUIPMENT AND SYSTEMS
State-of-the-art equipment is integrated with materials analysis software developed for the metallurgical, pharmaceutical and R&D laboratory segments. This software provides detailed analysis and complete reports for quality control. Arotec also has a wide range of NDT solutions for materials inspection. The 39DL PLUS™ is an ultrasonic thickness gauge, ideal for precise inspections, including analysis of the degree of nodularity.
The EPOCH 650 is an advanced ultrasonic device for reliable measurements on metallic and composite materials. The IPLEX G LITE Borescope/Videoscope is compact and sturdy, approved to military standards, and offers detailed images for visual inspection. The VANTA™ metal alloy analyzer identifies chemical composition quickly and accurately using XRF technology.
Factors such as the energy transition and the need for precision in industry have amplified recent operational challenges. One example is the transition to electric and hybrid vehicles, which has driven demand for new nanostructured materials and coatings, requiring strict process control and failure prediction. To meet these needs, Arotec offers equipment solutions such as non-contact roughness measurement, fault assessment with high-precision 2D/3D images, precision cutting for studies of surface phenomena and precision metrology for surface engineering (microcorrosion, high-adhesion primers, stampability of high-strength sheets).
These equipment technologies guarantee greater control and quality in production, in line with the demands of Industry 4.0 and 5.0. The diversified portfolio serves segments such as steel, mineralogy/mining, aeronautics, automotive, R&D laboratories in universities and technical schools, microelectronics, biomaterials, pulp and paper, power generation, oil and gas, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, and recycling.
