Nondestructive Testing (NDT) services play a critical role in verifying the quality and reliability of welded components, structural elements, industrial systems, and engineered products. NDT allows inspectors to evaluate surface and internal conditions without damaging the material, making it an essential part of fabrication, construction, and maintenance programs.
NDT is used across industries such as structural steel fabrication, pipeline construction, power generation, marine repair, manufacturing, and chemical processing. Whether a project involves new construction or ongoing maintenance, NDT ensures welds and materials meet the appropriate codes, safety requirements, and performance standards.
Visual Testing is the foundational step of any inspection program. Inspectors evaluate weld surfaces, joint preparation, fit-up, bead shape, and overall workmanship. VT helps identify early-stage defects such as porosity, undercut, misalignment, and lack of fusion—issues that can be corrected before they escalate into costly failures.
MT is used for ferromagnetic materials to detect surface and slightly subsurface discontinuities. Iron-particle indicators reveal cracks, laps, seams, and stress-related defects. MT is fast, reliable, and commonly used for structural steel, piping, storage tanks, and heavy equipment.
Liquid Penetrant Testing exposes surface-breaking flaws on both ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It is highly effective for stainless steel, aluminum, castings, and machined surfaces. PT reveals hairline cracks, leaks, porosity, and fatigue damage.
Ultrasonic Testing detects internal discontinuities using high-frequency sound waves. UT is essential for critical welds, pressure components, piping, vessels, heavy-wall fabrication, and structural connections.
Minimizes downtime by identifying issues early
Not always, but most structural, pressure-related, or safety-critical welds require NDT.
Simple inspections may take minutes; complex UT or multi-method evaluations may require more time.
