Certification of raw materials is a prerequisite for ensuring excellent quality levels and consequent end-customers satisfaction. Thanks to our expertise and know-how, we select only the best raw materials available on the market, and we perform strict quality controls straight from the commodities incoming, thereby verifying each product meets our standards before delivery.
Our daily business relies on the expertise of our technicians, who conduct several checks and tests directly in our in-house laboratory before, during and after the production process. This approach not only ensures quality of our products, but also enhances our transparency and accountability, further reinforcing our dedication to maintaining high-quality standards.
We can guarantee absolute traceability of all raw materials thanks to our MES system working with barcodes, able to trace the product history at any time.
Eurotubi, in its commitment to improving the quality of its products, has introduced the use of a new durometer, which allows measuring the hardness of materials.
Hardness represents the mechanical resistance of a material to indentation by another harder body. The hardness test consists of indenting the material’s surface with a harder body to assess its mechanical resistance.
This control has various uses in the company; for example, it is used to test the rollers that make up the tube forming line. This test allows verifying that the hardness of the materials used meets the requirements of the applicable regulations and ensures compliance with the required standards. Checking the hardness of the rollers is therefore a very important aspect to guarantee their proper functioning and ensure high-quality products.
We also perform the following tests and checks:
- Abrasion Test with abrasimeter
- Dimensional checks
- Visual test
- Flaring test
- Eddy Current Test
- Chemical analysis of raw materials by spectrometer
- Chemical analysis of emulsions used during the production
- Analysis of surface quality (roughness test)
- Analysis of mechanical characteristics (tensile test and burst-proof test)
