Metallurgical Test

Case Depth

In addition to providing a comprehensive range of metallurgical testing services, Sukhakarta Technical And Consultancy Services specializes in Case Depth testing. This non-destructive testing (NDT) technique is used to measure the thickness of hardened surface layers in metals, such as steel.

Sukhakarta Technical And Consultancy employs several key methods for analyzing grain size:

  • Surface hardening heat treatments are known to greatly enhance the strength, wear resistance, and fatigue performance of wrought, cast, and sintered ferrous components. Consequently, components subjected to surface hardening are frequently used in demanding applications, requiring careful assessment to ensure they meet design specifications for surface hardness, case depth, and microstructure. This analysis is crucial for product designers as it reveals the variation in material properties near the surface, where stress concentrations are typically highest.
