Metallurgical Testing

Types of Material Testing

1. Tensile Testing

Tensile Testing is one of the most fundamental methods of Material Testing used to determine the strength and ductility of materials. By applying a controlled tensile force until the specimen breaks, we measure properties such as ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation. This test helps engineers and manufacturers assess whether the material can withstand mechanical loads in its intended application. At TCR Advanced Engineering Pvt. Ltd., our high-precision equipment ensures accurate results for metals, polymers, and composites, helping clients choose materials with optimal mechanical performance.

2. Metallurgical Testing

Metallurgical Testing is performed to study the internal structure, grain size, and microstructure of metals and alloys. This process reveals how materials behave under different heat treatments, mechanical stresses, or manufacturing conditions. It also detects defects like inclusions, cracks, or segregation. TCR Advanced specializes in advanced Metallography Services, combining microscopic examination with metallurgical expertise to ensure the highest quality standards in engineering materials.

3. Chemical Testing

Chemical Testing identifies the exact chemical composition of metals, alloys, and non-metallic materials. It ensures that raw materials and finished products meet the required chemical specifications. At TCR Advanced, we use cutting-edge spectrometric and wet chemistry techniques to analyze major and trace elements accurately. Through Material Testing, we help industries maintain quality control, avoid contamination, and ensure regulatory compliance across production lines.

4. Mechanical Testing

Mechanical Testing evaluates how materials respond to various physical forces such as tension, compression, bending, or impact. It provides insights into the mechanical strength, elasticity, and toughness of the material. This form of Material Testing is essential in determining suitability for critical structures, machinery, and automotive components. TCR Advanced offers a complete range of mechanical evaluations to ensure material reliability in demanding environments.

5. Hardness Testing

Hardness Testing measures a material’s resistance to indentation or deformation. It helps determine surface strength, wear resistance, and durability. Methods such as Rockwell, Vickers, and Brinell are commonly used at TCR Advanced Engineering Pvt. Ltd. to test different materials. As part of our Material Testing portfolio, hardness analysis provides essential information for quality assurance and process optimization in manufacturing and fabrication industries.

6. Corrosion Testing

Corrosion Testing helps evaluate how materials react to different environmental conditions such as humidity, salt spray, or chemical exposure. It identifies the corrosion rate and helps predict material lifespan in aggressive environments. TCR Advanced conducts precise corrosion assessments that enable industries to choose the right materials, coatings, or treatments for long-term performance. This crucial aspect of Material Testing safeguards structures, pipelines, and industrial assets from premature failure.

7. Nondestructive Testing (NDT)

Nondestructive Testing (NDT) allows examination of materials and components without causing any damage. It detects internal or surface flaws like cracks, voids, or porosity using methods such as ultrasonic, radiographic, magnetic particle, and dye penetrant testing. TCR Advanced Engineering Pvt. Ltd. offers complete NDT solutions to ensure product integrity and safety while maintaining operational efficiency. This testing plays a vital role in industries where reliability and precision are critical.
