Has the interface separated?
The exterior appears normal, but separation is suspected inside the joint.
A real problem. The right specialists.

How far does it extend?
A suspicion alone does not support a component decision.
What caused it?
Surface preparation, adhesive, curing and loading are possible contributors.
The inspection principle
Where does the separation occur?
01Interface failure
02Cohesive failure
Schematic principle, not to scale. The drawings explain the inspection task; performance must be validated on real components.
A practical technical start
Separate the observation from its cause.
Detecting an indication does not automatically explain why the bond failed.
- Demonstrate separation
- Record material build-up, interface position and access; evaluate candidate methods on samples.
- Assess its extent
- Define relevant size and location, and plan an independent reference test.
- Investigate the cause
- Add process history, preparation and loading; consider material and strength investigations.
What happens next
A clear next step for your inspection task.
- 01
Describe the problem
A short description is enough to begin. Add photos or requirements if available.
- 02
Clarify the task
CorDev clarifies open questions with you and identifies the support your task needs.
- 03
Agree the next step
We agree the involvement of suitable specialists with you. Testing or a pilot requires a separate agreement.
Your inspection task
What do you need to establish on your component?
Describe what you observe and what you want to achieve. You do not need to know the right technology yet.

Before you ask
Frequently asked questions.
Is separation always visible?
No. It may lie below an unremarkable surface. Detectability depends on the component and method.
Does the test identify the cause?
Not automatically. Process, material and mechanical investigations may be needed.
Do you need a defective sample?
An affected sample and a good comparison part help. Without them, we can first clarify the task and next steps.
Does submitting create a paid order?
No. Paid work requires a separate, express agreement.
