Laboratory relocates from Düsseldorf to Neuss Buehler, a subsidiary of the American ITW Group based in Leinfelden-Echterdingen, Germany, manufactures metallo- graphic testing equipment, cutting equipment, mounting machines, grinding and polishing equipment, hardness testers and hardness testing systems. Between September and December 2022, all equipment and materials had to be carefully packed and transported. The equipment for the new application laboratory was determined by the employees.

In the lab, customers and prospective clients can determine the best methodology for their sample preparation from trained Buehler professionals, and learn about the equipment and consumables. From the beginning to the end of the process, the staff provide expert guidance and advice. Before customers purchase new equipment and suitable consumables, all samples are correctly prepared. Daniel Peters, a long-time employee of Buehler, commented, “Our customers are mainly from the aerospace industry, electrical engineering and the automotive industry. In these industries, an incorrect preparation of the materials for assessment would be fatal.” Potential material defects or deterioration must be corrected immediately to avoid later failures at the earliest possible stage. Once customers have decided upon the right inspection device, they can expect simple, intuitive operation. Complicated training is no longer necessary and the analysis can be started immediately.
