In-House Metallurgical Laboratory

Caran Precision is equipped with a full metallurgical laboratory that supports the processes within our organization and allows us to over-check incoming materials to help ensure that our customers receive the material quality they have come to expect.

Our team of quality engineers is well trained and disciplined in the use of all laboratory and testing equipment. This in-house capability gives Caran Precision greater control over material verification, process development, and product quality.

By supporting engineering, manufacturing, welding, and quality operations internally, our metallurgical laboratory helps us identify issues earlier, improve manufacturing processes, and provide customers with greater confidence in their finished components.

Metallurgical Testing Capabilities

Among our research, testing, and analytical capabilities are:

  • Tensile testing
  • Rockwell hardness testing
  • Knoop microhardness testing
  • Metallography
  • Grain size analysis
  • Intergranular attack analysis
  • Microstructure evaluation

  • Digital imaging

Supporting Quality at Every Stage

Our in-house laboratory strengthens material verification, process development, troubleshooting, product validation, and final quality assurance.

Material Verification

Incoming materials can be evaluated to help confirm hardness, structure, strength, and other important material properties.

Process Support

Laboratory testing supports stamping, deep drawing, welding, machining, assembly, and process qualification activities.

Quality Confidence

In-house analysis helps shorten response times, improve troubleshooting, and support consistent conformance to customer requirements.
