Power Generation
Manufacturing process can induce residual stresses that can lead to fatigue cracking and stress corrosion cracking. These conditions can
premature failures in components.
Automotive
Power Generation
Power Generation
Measurement of residual stresses in automotive components is an essential tool for process consistency and failure analysis.

Additive Manufacturing
Residual stress measurements are
critical in determining life of aerospace
structures and components.

Additive Manufacturing
Powder Bed Fusion 3D Printers can produce repeatable and almost identical parts,
but the process be building parts with
inconsistent residual stresses.
Pipelines and Welds
Additive Manufacturing
Pipelines and Welds
The dramatic effect that residual stresses
have on pipelines can help propagate:
- Hydrogen Induced Cracking
- Fatigue Cracking
- and Stress Corrosion Cracking
Shot Peening
Additive Manufacturing
Pipelines and Welds
Monitors proper and beneficial shotpeening
for 100% inspection while identifying
under peening and overpeening. Improper peening can decrease the service life of a component.
