Service Overview

Metallurgical testing involves analyzing the internal structure and mechanical properties of materials to ensure they meet design and performance requirements. At R.K. Industries, our in-house metallurgy lab plays a vital role in verifying heat treatment results, validating raw material properties, and supporting failure analysis. This scientific approach ensures every component we produce is not only dimensionally accurate, but structurally sound — capable of withstanding real-world application stress.

Our Capabilities

We operate a complete, in-house metallurgical lab designed to support heat treatment, material validation, and structural analysis. Our capabilities include:

Metallurgical Microscope with Image Analyzer – Visual analysis of grain structure, micro-cracks, and heat treatment results
Digital Micro Vickers Hardness Tester (Turret Type) – For highly accurate micro-hardness profiling
Abrasive Cutting Machine – Sectioning of components for cross-sectional analysis
Specimen Mounting Press – Encasing samples in resin for lab preparation
Belt Grinding and Polishing Machines – Smooth sample surfaces for microscopy
Grinder/Polisher Unit – Final finishing for microstructure observation
Testing Support for Heat-Treated Components – Ensures that case hardening, induction, and annealing are effective

This lab enables us to close the loop between manufacturing and material science — a key advantage in critical component production.

Process Flow

01

Sample Selection

Components are selected post-heat treatment or from batch samples

02

Sectioning

Samples are cut using abrasive tools to expose cross-sections

03

Mounting & Surface Preparation

Mounted in resin and polished to lab-grade smoothness

04

Microscopic Analysis

Grain flow, hardness zones, and micro-defects are examined

05

Hardness Profiling

Vickers testing determines surface and core hardness

06

Documentation & Validation

Reports are generated for internal QA or client submission

Applications / Industries Served

Metallurgical testing is crucial for parts that undergo heat treatment or are exposed to high stress during operation.

  • Typical Applications: Hardened shafts, forged blanks, gear teeth, structural collars, precision spacers
  • Industries Served:
    • Automotive (Transmission, Suspension, Safety Parts)
    • Agriculture (Heavy Load Gearing Components)
    • Industrial Equipment (Rotating Parts, Tools)
    • Quality-Critical Export Components

With full in-house testing, we eliminate guesswork and reduce lead time for validation.

Quality & Inspection

Our metallurgical lab enhances our overall quality framework and supports ISO/IATF compliance:

Hardness Testing: Digital Vickers with fine control for microzones
Grain Structure Certification: Useful for IATF or PPAP documentation
Failure Analysis Support: Useful for identifying material flaws or stress fractures
Heat Treatment Validation: Ensures case depth and uniformity
Internal Audit Integration: Supports QA and engineering with root cause investigations
Certified Compliance: Backed by ISO 9001, ISO 45001, and IATF systems

Our metallurgical testing isn't just about quality — it's about proof of performance.
