Materials Laboratory
The Materials Laboratory is responsible for the performance of mechanical and
metalographic tests in high resistance ceramic compounds, metallic alloys and welds.
With a team of specialized engineers and technicians, this laboratory is qualified by
the IBQN and by INMETRO's Brazilian Testing Network since 1995.
