You have noticed a problem with cracks in materials and want to solve it

First of all, cracks can affect a large number of materials such as metals, ceramics, polymers or composites.

A material crack refers to the appearance of a sudden discontinuity in a material under the effect of external stresses, resulting in a loss in the reliability and strength of the product.

The characteristics of the cracks, called “facies“, (length, depth, speed of appearance…) allow us to know their origin.

A cracking problem in materials is caused by a strength problem and/or production defects. Thus, it is crucial to prevent the problem of cracks in materials by choosing a material adapted to its life cycle and by thorough testing at the time of manufacture.

The expertise of a competent laboratory will allow you to ensure the conformity and durability of a material while giving you the possibility to adapt your production processes in order to prevent the occurrence of cracks.
