Quality Issues

Projects focusing on improvement of quality and reduction of non-conformities

We assist clients to reduce production non-conformities with the help of RCA (route cause analysis):

Material structure analysis (microstructure, macrostructure)
Material properties analysis (mechanical, physical, tribological, corrosion, functional, etc.)
Processing conditions analysis (the effect of production process on material properties)

Typical examples of our work

RCA of defects of injection moulded parts (automotive industry, medical industry, packing, etc.)
Analysis of welded joints – prevention of welding process failure (automotive)
RCA of welded tanks – prolonging lifetime ( oil&gas industry)
Analysis of HVOF sprayed ceramics coated materials – prevention of cracking (oil&gas industry)
Systematic analysis of painting systems – selection of best performing materials (corrosion prevention, oil&gas)
Assessment of the effect of recycling of automotive headlamps – increased utilization of recyclates in production (automotive)
Analysis of adhesives joints failure – material adhesive replacement, processing conditions adaptation (medical equipment)
