Scientific Technical Services
Providing answers when nobody else can.
When creating a device combining metals and plastics, it is vital that an analytical laboratory have the two disciplines of metallurgy and chemistry working together to hasten the discovery of problems and, subsequently, their solutions. With modern materials technology developing more and more hybrid materials, it is difficult for a standalone metallurgical lab or chemistry lab to evaluate raw materials and treatments and analyze any unforeseen failures that may occur. Here at Crane Engineering, analysts from both our chemistry and metallurgical laboratories work together so you receive comprehensive answers to your difficult manufacturing problems.
Analytical Technology
Crane Engineering’s complete, full-service chemical, metallurgical, and micro-imaging laboratories have the instrumentation and know-how to solve almost any material or chemical problem. We identify, diagnose, locate, and analyze, delivering results that count.
Metallurgy and Materials Science
Whether it's metal, glass, polymers or composites, Crane Engineering's metallurgy and materials experts identify complex materials, determine how and why materials fail – and recommend how to prevent them from failing again.
SEM/EDS (micro-imaging)
Crane Engineering's clients benefit from the company's SEM/EDS technology, turning to our skilled operators for answers to vital questions. In particular, using low-vacuum SEM/EDS has meant even wet samples of evidence or tissue.
