POSITIVE MATERIAL IDENTIFICATION (PMI)
SANIS offers Positive material identification (PMI) is a fast and non-destructive method for verifying the chemical composition of metals and alloys. Portable and cost-effective, PMI can be performed in the field.
Positive material identification is a cost-effective method for confirming general material types. While not as thorough as other chemical analysis methods, PMI is a great option for confirming the alloy or type of large batches of material, testing finished components, re-certifying materials, and evaluating materials that cannot be destroyed, or shipped to a lab.
Our experts can assist in identifying mixed batches of material, issuing alloy verification certifications and analysing expensive or unique components without causing damage. We can detect a large range of metals and alloys, and routinely assist with large or on-site projects
