Non Destructive Testing

The terms Nondestructive Examination (NDE), Nondestructive Inspection (NDI), and Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE) are also commonly used to describe these techniques. Because NDT does not permanently alter the physical conditions of the piece being inspected, it is a highly valuable technique that can save both money and time in product assessment, troubleshooting, and research. Some NDT methods include ultrasonic, electromagnetic, radiographic, remote visual inspection, guided waves, magnetic particle, penetrant testing, etc. All these methods have been subject to significant improvements during the last decade, therefore making available more accurate tools in the field of materials examinations.

Advantages of Advanced Ultrasonic (AUT) and other advanced NDT technologies:

  • Higher POD, Resolution & Sensitivity.
  • Accurate location, characterization, and sizing of defects.
  • Reduced inspection times compared to conventional methods.
  • Permanent Digital Records. Potential for reduced manpower.
  • Greater penetration than conventional radiography (large thickness).
  • Root, cap, and mid-wall coverage simultaneously in a one-line scan.
  • Flexibility- easily adjustable to varying diameters, thicknesses, and weld configurations.
  • Full A-scan raw data with imaging and post processing.
  • Excellent replacement for conventional radiography with almost no radiation hazard!
