Metallography is performed to examine metals’ constituents and physical structures, most commonly using light optical microscopy. Typically, metallographic analysis involves a destructive process to extract a sample from a part, followed by sample preparation, which includes mounting, grinding, polishing, and etching to reveal microstructural details. Accu-Test Labs’ team of experienced metallurgists and trained metallurgical technicians incorporate advanced digital microscopy software in performing various types of metallographic evaluations to meet our customer’s material specifications.
