Material composition is critical to a material's machinability, durability and stability in its intended use. As products have persified, we've seen a surge of new alloys, coatings, polymers and emerging materials including fiber-reinforced composites and ceramics. Manufacturers are constantly developing lighter, stronger and more heat, chemical and exposure resistant alloys/materials designed to meet a variety of specific end uses. These may include renewable or recycled materials, making composition and material properties more challenging to control.  

A strict quality system involves chemical analysis to verify chemical composition from raw material to finished product.  This ensures a safe, high-quality product that will meet your customer's needs.
