Root Cause Analysis of Metal Problems

Root Cause Analysis of Metal Problems

Many problems that arise during product development, manufacturing, and product use involve metal stock, components, and joints. When a metal is involved, a metallurgical examination is needed to obtain information that will help determine the root cause of the problem.

Watch this video of a past webinar to learn how common metallurgical analysis techniques are used to obtain the information needed to determine the root cause of problems. You will learn about how metallurgical evaluations fit into the root cause analysis process, the analysis equipment used, the data obtained, and how to use the information obtained from a metallurgical evaluation to determine the root cause of a problem.

You will have 14 days access to the webinar recording. A pdf file of the presentation slides is available for download.

Target Audience

This webinar is targeted to design, manufacturing, and quality engineers.

Topics covered

  • Product and manufacturing problems that require metallurgical evaluations and considerations.
  • How metallurgical evaluations fit into the root cause analysis process.
  • Background information required to determine the root cause of product or manufacturing problem
  • How to select, collect, handle, and prepare samples for metallurgical evaluation
  • How common metallurgical analysis tools are used to get information needed to determine the root cause of a problem.

Real-life problems will be used as examples and case studies.

  • "Principles of Metallurgy covered the foundations of metallurgy and effects of manufacturing processes needed to obtain desired mechanical properties. This information has been valuable during my work in both design and manufacturing. I highly recommend it for someone that could benefit from knowledge of the fundamentals of metallurgy."

  • The Principles of Metallurgy course was a great refresher and supplement to the Properties of Materials course I took in college. The content focuses on information relative to industry, which will help greatly in my day-to-day job functions.

  • Well worth the time to do Metallurgy of Steel Heat Treating. It has given me more confidence in my job and given me a better understanding of some of the heat treatments used in the business

  • I learned a bunch from this course. I needed an understanding of the heat treating and metals for our heat treating process in house. I now have a much better understanding of what is accomplished in the process along with understanding what could be a problem in our process.
