Toolmark analysis involves the meticulous examination of toolmarks left at crime scenes, accidents, or any scenario involving the use of tools, as every tool leaves a unique mark when it comes into contact with the surface with sufficient pressure.
It helps in linking tools to specific incidents, highlighting the nature of the tools used, and providing crucial insights for forensic investigators.
You must look for experts with knowledge of materials analysis and a proven track record in forensic toolmark investigations.
Experts at SIFS India use advanced techniques to identify, compare, and analyze tool marks found at the crime scene with tool marks created by known tools, along with the examination of the material on which the tool marks are found.
