Obtaining of high quality castings or other blanks from non-ferrous metals and alloys cannot be imagined without quality control of obtained castings and raw materials (alloys). Also, companies operating in the market of production and sale of non-ferrous metals and alloys must constantly control the quality of produced and realized products.
Even 10-15 years ago the “customers” presented only the requirements for the compliance of the acquired alloy with the declared chemical composition, while today it is not already enough. Since the process of obtaining of high-quality casting or other half-finished products directly depends not only on the chemical composition of an initial alloy but also on a number of nonmetallic inclusions, gas saturation, etc., the “customers” increasingly demand that alloy manufacturers carefully control the structure of alloys.
