2025-06-30

Recently, the semi-finals of the National College Students Metallographic Skills Competition (Hunan Division), sponsored by LABTT, were successfully held in Hunan. This competition attracted outstanding students from many universities in the province to compete on the same stage, aiming to select high-level players to represent Hunan in the national finals.
Promote learning through competition and forge practical ability in materials science
The National College Students Metallographic Skills Competition is one of the most influential professional competitions in the field of materials science and engineering in China, focusing on students' metallographic sample preparation technology, microstructure analysis ability and practical operation level.
As an important sub-competition area for the national semi-finals, the Hunan competition area sponsored by LABTT not only provides a platform for college students to demonstrate their skills, but also promotes the development of practical teaching in materials science through a rigorous competition system, helping to cultivate high-quality talents with both innovative awareness and professional qualities.
In the competition, contestants need to complete the grinding, polishing, corrosion and microscopic observation of samples within the specified time, and finally pass the metallographic image quality assessment. This process not only tests students' hands-on ability, but also reflects their in-depth understanding of the microstructure of materials.
LABTT's strong support demonstrates the industry's technical responsibility
As the main title sponsor of this Hunan competition, LABTT provides professional technical support for the competition with its technical advantages in metallographic and hardness testing.
LABTT has been deeply involved in the field of material testing for a long time, and its products are widely used in university laboratories and industrial quality inspection. This title sponsorship is not only a positive contribution to education, but also further highlights the company's benchmarking position in the industry.
The person in charge of the competition said that school-enterprise cooperation is an important guarantee for improving the professionalism of the competition, and LABTT's participation has injected new impetus into the training of materials science talents.
Empowering the future with professionalism and promoting the deep integration of industry, academia and research
With the successful conclusion of the Hunan competition, the qualified players will prepare for the national finals. LABTT said that it will continue to support college skill competitions in the future, promote collaborative innovation between industry, academia and research, and provide more practical talents for the materials industry.
At the same time, LABTT, as a representative of the sponsor, made a summary speech. At present, the company has increased its investment in research and development, focusing on breakthroughs in core technologies such as automated sample preparation and AI metallographic analysis; its unmanned metallographic sample preparation laboratory, unmanned hardness laboratory and other unmanned intelligent testing technologies have been verified and recognized in actual applications, leading the intelligent and unmanned development of the industry.
We hope to use the competition as an opportunity to build a technology platform with industry partners, share cutting-edge achievements, solve common problems, and help metallographic technology land in strategic fields such as new energy and aerospace.
The National College Students Metallographic Skills Competition not only provides a stage for students to showcase their skills, but also becomes an important link between university education and corporate needs. With the help of LABTT and other companies, the competition will further promote the two-way integration of materials discipline teaching reform and industrial technology development.
