Grades

Grade is a commercial name for an alloy, e.g. “stainless steel 316” is a grade. Besides the name, it
consists of a list of elements and their minimum and maximum concentrations.

Grade library is a collection of grades. These libraries (e.g. AISI, DIN, JIS) include more than a
thousand grades and even more can be added by the user. The instrument can have multiple
libraries and you can select which one to use.
