  • Save time and money through fast and effective testing of your assets and equipment at every stage of their lifespan – from manufacturing through to on-site operation
  • Ensure safe and reliable operation of your facilities

MPI TESTING

MPI TESTING

Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) is used for detecting Surface and near surface discontinuities in ferromagnetic materials. When a magnetic field is induced into the material by using an electromagnet, the presence of a surface breaking defect will create a leakage field, This leakage field is made visible by use of finely divided ferromagnetic particles..

LIQUID PENETRANT TESTING

LIQUID PENETRANT TESTING

Penetrant testing is used for detecting surface breaking discontinuities in Ferromagnetic and non-Ferromagnetic materials. Penetrants are brightly colored dyes that are applied to the surface of the test material and given time (Dwell time) to enter into any defects. Penetrant testing can be used on any non-porous material.

ULTRASONIC INSPECTION

ULTRASONIC INSPECTION

Ultrasonic Testing is the technique that measures the time for high Frequency pulses of sound waves to travel through the inspection material, the frequencies are usually 0.1 – 15MHz but occasionally up to 50MHz. If a discontinuity is present, the sound wave will return to the probe in a shorter time than expected from a fault free specimen.

RADIOGRAPHIC TESTING

RADIOGRAPHIC TESTING

Radiographic Testing is a method of inspecting materials for hidden flaws by using the ability of short wavelength electromagnetic radiation (high energy photons) to penetrate various materials. The intensity of the radiation that penetrates and passes through the material is either captured by a radiation sensitive film (Film Radiography) or by a planer array of radiation..
