    Components Failures… You may think, well, what’s the point? Its failed! And to some degree that’s true, but knowing why a component has failed can have many benefits. For example, have any servicing issues, operating conditions or even operator issues caused the failure? Or, you may just need a second opinion of an expensive repair to confirm that the repair option best suits you.

  8. Oil and Fuel Analysis

    Oil and Fuel Analysis

    Oil and fuel analysis and filter testing are used on an every day basis to provide further assistance into fuel or oil related issues and this is now aided by the use of filter testing.  Tyre analysis can provide detailed reasoning for tyre failures in service. We also utilise metallurgy with regards to the fractures in a material that need a more extensive detail finding.  We have also had environmental tests done and stability checks using the latest technology. Our ultimate aim is to provide a very comprehensive report on a particular defect or issue.
