Materials

The materials used to manufacture components and products play an increasingly crucial role in the final properties of the goods, to the point that they require specific study and analysis methods.

Tecnolab del Lago Maggiore provides a series of tests on materials inside its laboratories in Verbania (VB) with a transdisciplinary and innovative approach. Any company, which decides to develop a new product or needs to verify the actual quality and the compliance with the regulatory requirements of the material provided by suppliers, can address us.

The materials sector of Tecnolab del Lago Maggiore includes tests and measurements to verify the compliance with regulatory parameters, verifications of the actual composition of materials and their behaviour under certain conditions as well as for specific needs of the Customer.

Tests on metal alloys

Tests on metal alloys are carried out by Tecnolab to verify the essence of the material.

Tests on non-metallic materials

For non-metallic materials our verification activities consist of characterizations of the material.

Tests on elastomers

Tests on rubber, a widespread material both for domestic purpose and industrial applications.

Failure analysis

Data collection and analysis in order to determine the cause of a product failure or a malfunction.

Resistance to Dezincification, SCC, Analysis of corrosion resistance

Tests on metallic materials to determine the resistance to dezincification and corrosion in compliance with applicable regulations.

Salt spray corrosion resistance tests

If a product comes into contact with oxidizing agents, a test chamber for salt spray can verify the corrosion resistance.

Tools in contact with food

MOCA are regulated by measures that set out how materials and products should be manufactured in accordance with best practice.

Climatic Tests and Thermal Shocks

A series of tests in climatic chambers determine the behaviour of products in controlled climatic conditions.
