Our NDT Capabilities
Four certified inspection methods, structured training programs, and comprehensive consultancy — delivered by Level 3 experts.
Inspection Services
NDT Testing Methods
Our certified inspectors deploy the right technique for every application — from surface defect detection to subsurface flaw characterization.
🧲
Magnetic Particle Testing (MT)
Detects surface and near-surface discontinuities in ferromagnetic materials. Ideal for weld inspection, castings, and forgings in mining and power applications.
WeldsForgingsCastings
🔬
Penetrant Testing (PT)
Fluorescent or visible dye penetrant testing to reveal surface-breaking defects on any non-porous material — metals, plastics, ceramics.
Surface CracksPorositySeams
👁
Visual Testing (VT)
Systematic visual examination — including remote VT with optical aids — for surface condition assessment, weld quality, and corrosion evaluation.
Weld QCCorrosionCondition
📡
Ultrasonic Testing (UT)
Conventional ultrasonic testing for volumetric flaw detection and bond integrity — plus precision thickness measurement for corrosion monitoring, remaining wall assessment, and pressure equipment compliance. Ideal for pressure vessels, piping, and structural components.
Eddy current and electromagnetic testing for detecting surface and near-surface defects in conductive materials — without direct contact. Highly effective for tubing inspection, weld scanning, and corrosion detection in complex geometries.
Develop your team's NDT capabilities with industry-aligned training delivered by Level 3 certified instructors.
