AMT is Advanced Material Testing. Material Science Understood.

AMT analyzes solid materials directly, without digestion or dissolution, using laser-based mass spectrometry. We identify elemental composition, locate contaminants, and map how composition changes across surfaces and through depth to help you make informed decisions about your materials.

Get Answers to Your Material Questions

Screen

Identify which elements are present in your solid material.

Quantify

Measure selected elemental concentrations using suitable reference materials.

Depth Profile

Reveal how elemental composition changes beneath the surface.

Map

See where elements are distributed across a surface.

Analyze Solids Directly.
See Beyond Bulk Composition.

AMT uses Massbox laser-based mass spectrometry to analyze solid samples without digestion or dissolution. Elemental mapping and depth profiling reveal where elements are located and how composition changes beneath the surface.

  • Direct solid analysis: Test alloys, ceramics, powders, coatings, and minerals.

  • Surface mapping: Investigate elemental distribution and localized contamination.

  • Depth profiling: Explore changes in composition through coatings and below surfaces.


See What Material Analysis Reveals

AMT investigated coating composition and contamination in metal samples for a national manufacturer.

Coating differences

Differences in composition and thickness between samples.

Located contamination

Iron and titanium in dark spots, plus contamination at the coating–wire interface.

Unexpected elements
‍ ‍
Trace elements the manufacturer had not anticipated.

Example elemental maps showing potassium, manganese, and yttrium distribution.
