Materials Testing
Superior quality requires continued metallurgical and manufacturing engineering progress for the various areas of industrial application. Integrated construction and materials consulting expertise and comprehensive technical service characterise the competence of the Schmidt+Clemens - Group as a leading high performance steel specialist with a world wide presence.X-Ray Testing
Modern technology is available on-site, together with two radiographic bunkers. Wall thicknesses up to 350mm (steel) can be radiographed at Kaiserau. Sample castings are fully radiographed before bulk production commences. Batch castings are examined as specified, i.e. weld ends, percentage of quantity, critical areas etc. All fabricated component welds (seam welds) are routinely radiographed.
