Failure Cause Analysis

Equipment failure can cause major unavailability problems in operating equipment. The impact of failure is felt in economic terms such as increased maintenance, loss of production and decreased reliability. Equipment failures will tend to recur unless the root cause of failure is properly diagnosed and corrective actions implemented.

In conjunction with Metlab, Inc., Powerfect can provide comprehensive service with rapid turnaround so that customers can make timely decisions. Detailed metallurgical investigation is complimented by engineering analysis to pinpoint the exact cause of failure. The results of these investigations are presented in a clear, concise report. Functional repair, replacement, or modification recommendations can be developed for corrective actions.

Typical routine failure analysis can be turned around in 2-3 days with verbal results. A written report can follow in about 7-10 days. If you have any additional questions, please call us at 732-202-1133.
