Forensic Engineering

CMM Inc. provides practical and thorough forensic analysis of failed systems and/or components performed by engineers with extensive field experience and analysis skills. When necessary, supplemental laboratory services such as metallurgical analysis, non-destructive and destructive testing is utilized to augment/support CMM’s forensic analysis.

The main advantage of using CMM Inc. for forensic analysis is that CMM provides a non-biased analysis that focuses on determining the root cause of the failure for future prevention and not to just arbitrarily propose to repair, replace, redesign and/or sell the client a new replacement part.

Machinery and machinery components such as shafting, bearings, gearing, drive systems, machine frames.

Overhead crane components including complete crane/hoist analysis
