Analyses in standing order
We offer you more cost-effective molding material tests on a standing order basis for uniformity control. In a framework contract, with you fixed periods (monthly or weekly) and scope, investigations are carried out, which are specially adapted to your operational needs. The scope of testing includes an analysis report, statistical processing of the analysis results and written information about deviations and measures.
