ATS Colorado Springs Expanded Testing

Additional Mechanical Testing, Metallurgy, and Failure Analysis Capabilities to Come

Colorado Springs, CO. (August 27, 2025) — Our ATS Colorado Springs, CO location, formerly Empirical Technologies, is expanding its testing scope to include a variety of mechanical testing, metallurgy, and failure analysis capabilities to its list of offerings. The list of methods below corresponds with the standards to be added to their ISO/IEC 17025:2017 scope of accreditation upon completion of their upcoming audit:

  • Hardness Testing
    • Rockwell, Brinell, Vickers
  • Microhardness Testing
  • Case and Decarburization Depth
  • Ferrite Percent in Stainless Steels
  • Grain Size
  • Image Analysis
  • Inclusion Evaluation
  • Microstructure of Graphite in Iron
  • Metal and Oxide Coating Thickness
  • IGA Susceptibility
  • Pitting and Crevice Corrosion Resistance
  • Failure Analysis
  • SEM/EDS

While the Colorado Springs lab remains a Center of Excellence for the mechanical testing of medical devices, their new slate of capabilities empowers this lab to deliver service excellence to a broader array of industries beyond the life science sector. Their additional offerings contribute to the network at large by expanding the number of facilities that can perform these methods throughout the ATS Family of Companies.

Please help us congratulate the Colorado Springs location on their new capabilities and wish them speedy approval in their accreditation audit!
