Analysis on Costing of Methods for Materials Testing This investigation shows, how costs for materials testing can be analyzed and documented by the use of an universal method for single and series testing. A calculation model for PC was developed to realize a quick and transparent analysis of single cost factors. Transfer on any material test is possible as well as easy handling. Transparency of costs can also lead to motivation of employees. The calculation model as well as examples for calculation of selected test procedures for thin film characterization are presented. Basic demands on economic materials testing -- often neglected in laboratory testing but of immense importance in series testing -- become obvious. This is e.g. the technical and economical optimization of the test procedure using posibilities of automatization. The potential of optimization can only be estimated with certainty, if composition of total costs is known by analysis of cost factors.
