Metalab highlights its specialized services for the metallurgical industry, offering solutions for quality control, failure investigation and compliance with technical standards. The Dirt Test (ISO 16232 and VDA 19.1 and 19.2) allows the detection of contaminant particles, essential for sectors such as automotive and aerospace. Metalab is the only laboratory in Latin America accredited by ISO/IEC 17025 for this test.
The laboratory sells equipment and supplies for technical cleaning, providing solutions for companies that wish to perform this procedure internally. The chemical analysis solutions identify the composition and conformity of metal alloys and polymers. Mechanical tests evaluate properties such as resistance, hardness and toughness of materials.
Metallography examines the microstructure of materials, enabling accurate diagnoses. In turn, scanning electron microscopy (SEM-EDS) performs detailed analysis of surfaces, flaws and contamination. Field services complement the portfolio with analyses performed directly at the customer’s facilities, including chemical analysis, metallography and hardness tests.
CONSTANT INNOVATION IN DIRT ANALYSIS SOLUTIONS
Metalab continually invests in technology and quality to offer accurate and reliable solutions. Its commitment to innovation is reflected in the use of advanced equipment, such as SEM-EDS, FTIR, DSC and TGA, which guarantee detailed analyses and complete diagnoses. In addition, the company follows strict international standards to ensure the compliance of its services.
Dirt testing is the highlight, being essential to guarantee the quality and safety of components in sectors such as automotive, aeronautics and industry. With the requirement of the IATF standard for accredited suppliers, Metalab becomes an essential partner for companies seeking to comply with market regulations.
