Welding + Metallurgy = Success

A good weld yields a joint that has similar or better properties than the two pieces of metal being joined.

A good weld should make two pieces of metal into one, and a metallurgist often gets involved before welding begins. Reviewing designs, recommending welding processes and materials, and qualifying welding specifications, welders, and welding equipment are all common tasks done at laboratories like Engel Metallurgical. When a weld fails, the metallurgist is called upon to perform a failure analysis. An initial inspection is done, and a number of tests including microstructure evaluation, hardness or corrosion testing, or mechanical property testing may be necessary. Engel Metallurgical can help you find the answer.
