In the process of aviation manufacturing development, the replacement of materials presents a high-speed change transformation, materials and aircraft have been driven by each other continue to develop. "Generation of materials, generation of aircraft" is a true portrayal of the history of world aviation. Since the 21st century, the development of the aerospace industry has entered a new stage, which will promote the development of aerospace materials towards higher quality, category renewal, more functional and more cost-effective.

Debris & Filter

Debris to be analysed is placed in the SEM and bombarded with electrons which release X rays characteristic of the element that they hit. These X-rays are used to determine the elemental composition of the alloy.

Our laboratory has always appreciated the analytical capabilities of a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) for the examination of metallic and non-metallic debris recovered from oil samples, oil filters, or chip detectors. A visual assessment of the size and shape of the debris forms the initial stage of analysis. Further investigations are conducted with the use of x-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy to determine the composition of the debris. For metallic debris, the material classification can be achieved by comparing these elemental results with published specifications. This can help pinpoint the source the components responsible for the debris. 

Component Analysis

We analysis the elements by the SEM and EDS.

Distinguish Materials

We confirm the material according to component analysis.

Oil

Determination of additive elements, wearing metals and contaminants in used lubricating oils by Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) Atomic Emission Spectrometry. This test provides a rapid screening of used oil for wearing indications.

Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometers (ICP) can measure 23 elements simultaneously down to 0.1 parts per million. High concentrations of particular elements can indicate excessive engine wear or the presence of contaminants. Since the wearing rate of every engine is different, each engine is treated individually; And since metals have unique elemental concentrations, it is possible to predict the likelihood of bearing failure and component wear e.g metallic oil seals, oil pumps. Levels of those elements characteristic of oil additives are useful for confirmation of the oil grade in use, moreover, they may indicate contamination with fuel, oil, water, or incorrect oil type.
