Non Destructive Examination

Picture
  • Visual Testing - detects geometric anomalies using gauges and measuring tools.
  • Magnetic Particle Testing - detects discontinuities surface and near surface discontinuities in the weld, using magnetic particles (wet or dry methods). 
  • Liquid Penetrant Testing - detects flaws open to the surface using a dye that is drawn into discontinuities through a phenomenon called capillary action.
  • ​​Hardness Testing – utilized to test welds and high alloy steels such as Grade 91 and 92 looking for proper heat treatment of welds. Proper normalizing and tempering of induction bends, castings, and forgings.  ​​
Surface or embedded discontinuities cause stress risers in the weld, which reduces the fracture resistance and fatigue life. ​
  • Ultrasonic Thickness Testing – utilized to perform flow accelerated corrosion (FAC) of high pressure carbon steel lines pinpointing problematic thinning areas due to corrosion or erosion.
  • Ultrasonic Shearwave Testing - detects location and size of discontinuities in the weld (cracks, inclusions, porosity, and lack of fusion) using high frequency sound waves that are reflected by the flaws.
