Stress Engineering Services conducts hundreds of failure analyses each year on everything from wind turbines to electronic components and consumer products. When a component fails, our focus extends beyond "why did it fail?" to identify the operational and environmental factors that caused the failure and how to prevent it from happening again.
Our work often begins with field services, examining the failed component on-site, understanding its environment and service history, and selecting critical samples. Our engineers use a wide variety of macroscopic and microscopic analysis and testing techniques to document the component, determine material properties, and identify the failure mode.
At Stress Engineering Services our analytical and testing experts are skilled in a variety of disciplines and fields including material engineering, metallurgy, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, welding, biomedical engineering, polymers, and packaging. This collective force of experience along with our comprehensive testing capabilities enables us to provide complete and timely results that can help prevent future failures.
