How does Exponent help you objectively understand product liability challenges?
Exponent's multidisciplinary teams use rigorous testing methods, characterization techniques, cutting-edge tools, and decades of materials science experience to conduct objective investigations that give you answers for challenging product liability issues.
Manufacturing evaluations.
Additionally, we have the capabilities to evaluate your manufacturing processes to help you increase your understanding of the interplay between product design, material selection, manufacturing, and end-use performance and how these factors may influence the long-term reliability of your product.
Root cause analyses.
We are uniquely positioned to examine all aspects of a product to determine the root cause of failure and isolate probable causes related to variables ranging from raw material ingredients to in-service conditions. We routinely employ micro X-ray computed tomography (CT) scanning and analysis to support failure analysis investigations as well as quality and reliability assessments.
