Packaged drinking water contains treated and disinfected water from numerous sources – and it is extremely important to ensure that the water is fit for human consumption. Our material testing labs in India help determine the safety of the material used to package drinking water products found on supermarket shelves. We also help verify that the packaging used to store and deliver drinking water meets the regulatory guidelines and specified quality standards.
Following Are The Testing Services Provided By SMS Labs
Mineral Analysis
The mineral analysis offered by our material testing lab in Chennai helps determine the fundamental mineral composition and mineral structure of products.
Mineral Analysis is extensively used to identify mineral species as well as to understand their fundamental characteristics and properties such as microstructure, grain size, morphology, bondings, defects, etc.
Poultry Feeds Testing
Choosing our well-equipped material testing lab in Chennai for poultry feed testing services enables food, agriculture, and poultry industries to deliver quality products to consumers.
Performing poultry feeds tests on poultry feeds and other associated products can help spot potential quality problems.
At the starting point of the poultry lifecycle, poultry feed testing is important because, our material testing laboratory can help identify contaminants, disease, and improper levels of moisture or nutrients present in the poultry feed- that could compromise the quality of the final product output.
Wall Thickness
Wall thickness is a non-destructive measurement process that gauges the wall thickness of various products using advanced measuring devices without causing any severe damage to the respective product.
The thickness measurement metrics offered by our material testing lab Chennai are crucial for several large-scale industrial clients to monitor corrosion, erosion, and damage in their systems.
Leakage Testing
Leakage testing is one of the prominent types of non-destructive testing methods – performed by our material testing labs in India to identify potential flaws in product designs at an initial stage and to spot fragile component structures.
Leakage testing processes are extensively utilized by our material testing lab in Chennai in pressurized or evacuated systems, to detect plus locate leaks in the components as well as for accurate measurement of fluid leakage.
Leakage testing is also used to determine if a product or a system operates in accordance with the standards and within the expected leakage limit.
Breakpoint Analysis
In order to develop and design products with a sustainable life-cycle, attention to several crucial mechanical parameters such as breakpoint is necessary. Our well-equipped material testing lab offers in-depth breakpoint analysis that improves the final quality of the product.
For instance, identifying the fatigue accumulation breakpoint can improve the overall product lifecycle. Fatigue accumulation breakpoint is the point at which the combination of duty cycle and amplitude of load start to cause accumulation of fatigue in each cycle as well as there is inadequate time to recover.
Sea Food Packaging Material Testing
The role of our material testing laboratories is to ensure that the material used for seafood packaging not only protects the product from external/ environmental influence but also preserves crucial sensory qualities such as appearance, taste, smell, and consistency.
FREQUENTY ASKED QUESTIONS
Material testing involves analyzing the physical, mechanical, chemical, and thermal properties of materials to assess their suitability for specific applications. It helps ensure quality control, product performance, and compliance with industry standards.
Material testing is crucial for verifying the quality, safety, and reliability of materials used in manufacturing, construction, and other industries. It helps prevent product failures, ensures compliance with regulatory requirements, and supports innovation and product development.
Common materials tested include metals, alloys, plastics, ceramics, composites, polymers, textiles, concrete, and electronic components. Testing assesses properties such as strength, hardness, elasticity, conductivity, durability, and chemical resistance.
Methods used in material testing include mechanical testing (tensile, compressive, impact tests), chemical analysis (spectroscopy, chromatography), thermal analysis (DSC, TGA), microscopy (SEM, TEM), and non-destructive testing (ultrasonic, radiographic).
Material testing labs ensure accuracy and reliability by following standardized testing procedures, using calibrated equipment, and maintaining accreditation from bodies like the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL). Regular proficiency testing and audits uphold high standards.
