Your complete guide to failure analysis at Kiyo R&D Lab
A part cracked, a weld broke, a coating peeled, or a component failed in the field — and now you need to know exactly why, before it happens again. Root-cause answers protect your product, your customers, and your reputation. Searching for dependable failure analysis services in chennai? Kiyo R&D Lab investigates how and why materials and components fail, then gives you clear, evidence-based conclusions you can act on.
From fractured metals and cracked plastics to corroded parts, failed welds, and contaminated surfaces, our expert team combines the right tests, careful examination, and clear reporting you can rely on.
Failure analysis is the structured investigation of why a material or component failed — by fracture, corrosion, wear, fatigue, contamination, or a manufacturing defect. It combines visual and microscopic examination, material testing, and engineering judgement to move from symptom to root cause. Professional failure analysis services in chennai turn a broken part into a clear explanation and a path to prevention.
For manufacturers, it stops a recurring defect at source. For warranty and disputes, it provides objective, defensible evidence. For R&D, it reveals design or material weaknesses before they reach the market — all backed by documented data.
As a full-service provider of failure analysis services in chennai, we select the right combination of techniques for each case rather than a one-size-fits-all test.
Examine the fracture surface and origin.
High-magnification imaging & elements.
Identify polymers & contaminants.
Tensile, hardness to verify properties.
Assess corrosion & coating failure.
Clear conclusions & prevention advice.
| Failure Mode | Likely Cause | Key Technique |
|---|---|---|
| Fracture / crack | Overload, fatigue, brittleness | Fractography, SEM, tensile |
| Corrosion | Environment, wrong alloy | SEM-EDX, visual |
| Contamination | Foreign material, residue | FTIR, SEM-EDX |
| Coating failure | Poor adhesion, thin film | Adhesion, thickness tests |
| Wrong material | Mix-up, substitution | FTIR, material ID |
Our failure analysis services in chennai draw on globally recognised test methods so each piece of evidence is defensible and audit-ready.
ASTM ISO
| Method | What It Provides | Role in Analysis |
|---|---|---|
| SEM-EDX | Microstructure & elemental data | Fracture & corrosion cause |
| FTIR (ASTM E1252) | Polymer & contaminant ID | Material & residue ID |
| Tensile (ASTM E8) | Strength & ductility | Verify material properties |
| Hardness (ASTM E18) | Hardness profile | Heat-treat & strength check |
| Coating tests | Adhesion & thickness | Coating-failure cause |
Every investigation ends with a clear root-cause conclusion and practical recommendations to prevent recurrence.
