Surface Quality Audits

A Surface Quality Audit is an invaluable tool when it comes to understanding how surface inspectors, suppliers, and end customers compare and rate surface condition. Also used extensively to quantify surface quality at various manufacturing stages and run competitive analysis at new product launch or refresh.

Formability Studies

A Formability Study is generally used in the setting of stamp/press shop tools. Whether determining press tonnage (first strike & restrike, 2nd draw)or the subtleties of flanging operations, pieircing stations, hemmers, etc., An EOS Formability Study fine tunes sheet metal shape standards.

Formulation Studies

When developing new material formulations or adjusting for changes in curing time or temperatures (and pressures in the case of an autoclave), EOS technologies can quantitatively determine surface condition shifts. Also very helpful for determining optimum lay-up patterns for composite laminations.

Tool, Die, Mould Buy-offs

At Buy-Off, it is critical to identify all anomolies that could contribute to defects in the manufactered part before taking ownership. Highs, lows and inclusions are quickly located and archieved. A properly recorded surface inspection acts as baseline for future monitoring of tool wear and re-work requirements.
