Positive Material Identification (PMI) is a fast and 非破坏性 method for verifying the chemical composition of metals and alloys. Portable and cost-effective, PMI can be performed in one of our state-of-the-art labs, 或者在现场.

Positive material identification is a cost-effective method for confirming general material types. While not as thorough as other chemical analysis methods, PMI is a great option for confirming the alloy or type of large batches of material, testing finished components, re-certifying materials, and evaluating materials that cannot be destroyed, or shipped to a lab.  

im体育APP, we can detect a large range of metals and alloys, and routinely assist with large or on-site projects to ensure your materials meet the required specification and stand up to the demands of the environment.

Laboratory positive material identification services

im体育APP can perform PMI testing in labs across the US and 欧洲. Our experts can assist in identifying mixed batches of material, issuing alloy verification certifications and analyzing expensive or unique components without causing damage. 

On-site PMI with portable XRF-analyzer

作为我们 On-site Metallographic Analysis, im体育APP offers on-site PMI with a portable XRF-analyzer for identification of medium and high alloyed metals, such as stainless steels, 镍合金, and copper alloys. 

Our on-site PMI analysis services provide you with a rapid response to your material sorting requirements when shipping materials or parts to a laboratory is too slow or not possible.
