Metallurgical Lab from 0s 4

[GTLA]

Did someone have developed a metallurgical laboratory from nothing? I am working on that, our business is considering this and im who will justify the cost. I have visited some suppliers and determined what we need based in current external analysis; by now I have included stereomicroscope & metallurgical microscope (Nikon), hardness & microhardness testers (Instron), cutting-mounting pulisher (Struers), EDS (Spectro) and SEM (Jeol, but i guess maybe this will be included later). I though this will be enough to conduct good analysis in our parts, we handle metallic and plastic parts for safety systems.
Any tip or experience that you may have on it? I would like to ensure that i am not missing something. Thanks.
