Choose the Right Starting Point
Raw material, production components and weld sections each require the correct preparation and inspection sequence before results can be compared.
Product Group
Complete Sample Preparation, Imaging, Hardness Testing and Analysis Solutions
Metallography and weld analysis use a connected laboratory process covering specimen preparation, imaging, analysis, hardness testing and reporting.




End-to-end equipment, software and application support.
Original equipment and software developed by Conation.
Professional microscopy solutions backed by Nikon technology.
Designed, developed and manufactured by Conation.
Understand how specimen preparation, metallography, weld evaluation and hardness testing work together to deliver reliable quality-control decisions.
Raw material, production components and weld sections each require the correct preparation and inspection sequence before results can be compared.
Cutting, mounting, polishing, microscopy, image analysis and reporting are designed as one connected laboratory process.
The same laboratory can evaluate microstructure, weld penetration, fusion profile, hardness and dimensional characteristics using integrated solutions.
Equipment recommendations are based on your materials, standards, production process and reporting requirements rather than a fixed machine list.
