However, the quality and integrity of steel materials can vary significantly depending on factors such as composition, manufacturing processes, and environmental conditions.
Chemical composition

Identifying the presence and proportions of different elements that influence its properties like strength, ductility, and corrosion resistance.

Mechanical properties

Measuring tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, and hardness to assess its ability to withstand stress and deformation.

Microstructure

Examining the grain size and distribution of different phases within the steel, influencing its overall performance.

Surface quality

Identifying defects like cracks, inclusions, or surface imperfections that can affect performance and longevity.
