Failure Analysis | rubber hose

Failure Analysis on rubber hose The object The purpose of the following investigations is to define the causes that caused the damage on the sample “Used and hardened pipe,” provided by the customer. To conduct the analysis, the used sample was compared with a new part. The samples as arrived are shown in Figure 1. […]
Damage rubber water bag

Chemical characterization case study to determine causes damage water bag
Fiberglass pipe breakage

Fiberglass pipe breakage The object The purpose of the investigation is to characterize the material and determine the cause of the damage that occurred on the fiberglass pipe. Investigations were conducted on two predefined areas: one area showing obvious signs of damage and the second area, on the other hand, perfectly intact. The pipe consists […]

Failure Analysis | suitcase

Failure Analysis on suitcase The object The object whose causes of breakage are being investigated is a travel suitcase. It is found to be non-compliant on the front side, characterized by the presence of anomalies (cracks, scratches…), while on the back side there is no damage. From the information provided by the client, the suitcase […]
Failure Analysis | threaded pin

Failure Analysis on threaded stud The object A threaded stud is a mechanical component used to attach or connect two or more parts in a mechanical or structural system. It is a component that can be found in any machine, so very common, almost trivial from a mechanical point of view. Yet the failure of […]
Failure Analysis | impeller

Failure Analysis on Impeller The object An impeller is a mechanical component used primarily in pumps and turbines. It is a rotating part within a housing that is designed to generate flow or motion within a fluid (liquid or gas) or to transfer energy from a driving source to its surroundings. When used within a […]
Failure Analysis | load cell

Failure Analysis on load cell The object A load cell is an electronic device used to measure the force or load applied to it. It consists of a stress-sensitive structure, usually made of a metal alloy or ceramic material, that reacts by deforming when a load is applied. This deformation is converted into an electrical […]
