The scientific study of measurement is known as Metrology. Advanced metrology is utilized to enhance economic security and improve quality of life by assuring quality of the products manufactured for people use. The scope of Metrology ranges from calibrating the machinery used during production to measuring the resulting parts and products.

Introduction to Metrology
The International Bureau of Weight and Measures defines Metrology as: The science of measurement, embracing both experimental and theoretical determinations at any level of uncertainty in any field of science and technology. Consumers, traders, government regulators and industries are benefited by Metrology and its implications.
Subfields of Metrology
There are three subfields of Metrology: Scientific, Legal and Industrial Metrology. Metrology is equally useful in the fields of practical science, technology, engineering and medicine.Scientific metrology deals with the establishment of internationally accepted units of measurement (International System of Units or SI units), development of new measurement methods, realization of measurement standards, and transfer of these standards to users in a society. Its is also known as ‘fundamental metrology’.Legal metrology deals with the assurance of correctness of measurements influencing the transparency of trade, law enforcement, and health & environment safety. Legal metrology ensures that measurements and measuring instruments comply with laws and regulations, and protects traders, consumers, public safety and the environment.Industrial metrology deals with the application of measurement to manufacturing and other industrial and research processes and their use in society, ensuring the suitability of measurement instruments, their calibration and quality control and check.
Uses of Metrology
Accelerates innovation, taking products to market faster, and allowing innovators to fail fast and learn fast
Improves effectiveness of research and development and the trust in its outcomes
Improves efficiency by reducing waste and increasing productivity
Enables changes in fast mode, adding value to society
Is crucial for the development and assessment of evidence-based policy.
MaTestLab Inc. offers accessible, quick, and affordable material testing, product testing, and failure analysis services. We support your on-demand testing and expert consultation needs with the help of our extensive network of material testing laboratories situated in the US and other parts of the world.
MATERIAL TESTING
We offer destructive and non-destructive tests over a range of mechanical, electrical, chemical, thermal, optical, corrosion, radiation, and biological testing methodologies defined by ASTM, ISO and other organizations.
PRODUCT TESTING
We help you evaluate and ensure your product quality and performance with standard and custom-made testing solutions. All the tests are done at well-equipped testing laboratories using standard testing methods for best output and satisfaction.
FAILURE ANALYSIS
Failure analysis ensures high levels of quality in every manufacturing process. We help you with getting the best failure or root cause analysis to determine the cause of the failure. The results help you identify means to prevent failure recurrences.
