Case Study: MechTest increases lab efficiency with Struers automation

MechTest cuts sample preparation time to 10 minutes with Struers

MechTest, an independent metallurgical and materials testing laboratory based in Brisbane, faced the challenge of needing to increase throughput and achieve faster, more consistent sample preparation processes. To meet this goal, they partnered with vendor Struers for a solution involving materialographic hardness testing automation.

By implementing Struers' automated solution, MechTest significantly reduced its sample preparation time to as little as 10 minutes. This increased the lab's capability and capacity, simplified its customer documentation process, and enabled it to provide a better service with same-day turnaround of tests.
