As an industrialist, you wish to carry out analysis of ferroalloys

What is a ferroalloy?

A ferroalloy is a metal alloy composed primarily of iron and one or more chemical elements (such as chromium, manganese, silicon, vanadium, or molybdenum). These elements are added to iron to improve certain properties of steels or alloys, such as:

mechanical resistance

ease of machining

Ferroalloys are used as additives in the manufacturing processes of steels and specialty alloys, to precisely adjust the chemical composition of materials.

They are found in many industrial sectors: steelmaking, foundries, aerospace, automotive, nuclear, etc.

Ferroalloy analysis: an essential control for your metallurgical processes

Ferroalloy analysis

Guarantee the conformity and performance of your ferrous alloys

Ferroalloys are strategic components used in the production of numerous steels and metal alloys. Whether you are a foundry, steelmaker, or industrial subcontractor, precise control of their chemical composition is essential to ensure the quality, regulatory compliance, and performance of your finished products. At FILAB, we support you in the comprehensive analysis of your ferroalloys, thanks to our materials expertise and state-of-the-art analytical equipment.

Why use a ferroalloy analysis laboratory?

A ferroalloy analysis laboratory is often commissioned by the metallurgical industry to address issues related to the quality, performance, and compliance of metal materials and products.

Ferroalloy analysis verifies the chemical composition of alloys, ensuring that the materials used meet the standards required for specific applications, thus avoiding the risk of failure. Furthermore, these analysis help identify and understand the causes of failures, such as corrosion, fatigue, or fracture, allowing for improved manufacturing processes and material selection.
