Our defense chemical analysis services provide answers that can be an integral part of any large-scale defense project, where a reliable supply chain is crucial to project delivery and budgeting.
ºÃÉ«TV is committed to providing quality combined with on-time delivery. With a proven track record in defense chemical analysis, we help our customers to understand the content and structure of different materials and substances, including metals, composites, adhesives, plastics, and rubber.
We also perform contamination analysis, quality controls, controls of process baths, and thermal analysis. Our scientific detective work is built on more than 30 years of experience in qualified chemical investigations.
Condition monitoring
Condition monitoring involves taking samples from the engine, transmission, and hydraulic oils in operating machines or systems which include anything from forestry machines, ships, airoplanes, or helicopters to large turbine systems in power generation, where any failure or production downtime must be avoided.
By regular condition monitoring you can:
- Check system condition and get early warnings of component wear
- Control contaminant levels
- Detect lubricant degradation
