1. A bulk electrochemical metal and/or alloy test system, comprising:
a separator station configured to separate bulk, provided pieces of metal and/or alloy;
a conveyor system configured to move the individual pieces of metal and/or alloy in a particular direction; a moving system configured to move the individual pieces of metal and/or alloy from the conveyor system; a Holding station configured to receive and hold the individual pieces of metal and/or alloy received from the moving system; an electrochemical probe system configured to perform tests on the individual pieces of metal and/or alloy at the holding station to identity characteristics of the individual pieces of metal and/or alloy; and a second moving system configured to remove the tested individual pieces of metal and/or alloy from the holding station to a location based on the results of the tests.
