AGM Con-Test is an independent laboratory for testing metal and consulting services established as a continuation of previous European engineering/consulting operations, which started already in 1986. During almost 30 years of intense work and participating in numerous projects within various industrial and scientific fields (automotive industry, oil/energy industry, chemical industry, diesel engine industry, water and gas turbine manufacturing, machining and forming processes, tribological expertise, heat treating and welding process, etc.), the founder and technical lead-expert of the laboratory has gathered both an in-depth scientific knowledge and extremely rich and broad industrial experience. He has merged metallurgical expertise and mechanical engineering on many occasions and put both areas "under the same roof". Within a personalized team-work he shares each element of that with our customers. His professionalism and enthusiasm have been a driving force of the laboratory for years and have been transferred to all of our personnel on everyday basis.
