Find the optimal process for your material

The Struers Metalogram has been a key tool for professional materialographers worldwide since 1992 and is an easy tool for selecting the ideal preparation method for different materials.

The best preparation method depends on the hardness and ductility of the material, as well as the type of analysis you want to perform.

Our team of application specialists have developed and optimized proven methods for any material based on its hardness and ductility. We take an open, knowledgesharing approach to method development – and make these methods available to our customers, and online through the Struers Metalogram.

Automation for higher accuracy, efficiency, safety and speed

Today’s materialographic laboratories are constantly searching for more reliable ways to deliver a high number of samples, in less time, with fewer hands, and with minimal stops. The solution is automation.

By automating key materialographic steps, you can increase efficiency, quality, safety and accuracy across your process, while giving your staff more time to work on other tasks. The result is greater certainty in your work, lower costs for your business and better quality control for your customers.

Struers was the first materialographic company to invest in automation in the 1970s. Today, we are pushing the boundaries of what is possible. We provide a complete range of automated equipment, from semi-automatic cutting machines to Xmatic, a fully automated end-to-end grinding and polishing solution.
