Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)

NDT Inspection Services

Visual Testing (VT)

One of the most fundamental inspection methods used to detect manufacturing defects and surface irregularities. It is performed visually or with optical magnification tools and serves as a supporting technique for other NDT methods. It plays a crucial role in weld inspections, casting surfaces, and industrial pipeline assessments and is conducted in accordance with ASTM E125, EN ISO 17637, and ASME Section V Article 9 standards.

Ultrasonic Testing (UT)

A technique that utilizes high-frequency sound waves to detect discontinuities within a material. Sound waves penetrate the material, and the reflected signals are analyzed to identify internal defects. It is widely applied in welded joints, castings, thin plates, and thick steel structures, following ASTM E164, EN ISO 16810, and ASME Section V Article 4 standards.

Magnetic Particle Testing (MT)

A method used for detecting surface and near-surface defects in ferromagnetic materials by generating a magnetic field and analyzing deviations in the field caused by flaws. This method is commonly applied in heavy industrial components, welded joints, and forged parts. Conducted in accordance with ASTM E1444, EN ISO 9934-1, and ASME Section V Article 7 standards.

Liquid Penetrant Testing (PT)

A widely used technique for detecting surface cracks in non-porous materials. Special penetrant liquids seep into microscopic openings, becoming visible when a developer is applied. Frequently used in the aerospace, energy, and metal production sectors for inspecting thin-walled and stainless steel materials. Applied according to ASTM E165, EN ISO 3452-1, and ASME Section V Article 6 standards.

Radiographic Testing (RT)

Uses X-ray or gamma radiation to identify volumetric defects inside materials by analyzing differences in radiation penetration. Primarily used for pressure vessels, pipelines, castings, and welded joints. Conducted in compliance with ASTM E94, EN ISO 17636, and ASME Section V Article 2 standards.

Radiographic Film Interpretation

A detailed analysis of radiographic images to detect internal defects in welded joints and castings. Our certified inspectors evaluate films according to EN ISO 17636-2, ASTM E1032, and ASME Section V Article 2, ensuring high-accuracy results for quality-critical projects.

Ultrasonic Thickness Measurement (UTM)

Measures material thickness and internal wear using ultrasonic waves that reflect from the internal surface, allowing precise thickness calculations. Applied to pipes, boilers, storage tanks, and shipbuilding structures to evaluate service life. Conducted under ASTM E797 and EN ISO 16809 standards.

Ferrite Testing

Determines ferrite content in welded joints to assess mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. Essential for stainless and duplex steel welding applications, performed according to EN ISO 8249 and AWS A4.2 standards.

Positive Material Identification (PMI)

Uses X-ray fluorescence (XRF) technology to analyze material composition without damage, identifying alloy elements to verify compliance. Widely used in petrochemical, aerospace, and energy industries, in accordance with ASTM E1476 and EN 15205 standards.

Time of Flight Diffraction (ToFD)

A high-precision ultrasonic technique for crack detection, particularly suitable for weld defect characterization in pressure vessels and pipelines. Applied under ASTM E2373 and EN ISO 10863 standards.

Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT)

An advanced ultrasonic method utilizing multiple sensor elements simultaneously to capture high-resolution imaging at different angles. Critical for aerospace, automotive, power plants, and petrochemical components. Applied under ASTM E2700, EN ISO 13588, and ASME Section V Article 4 standards.

Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) Testing

A technique for detecting corrosion and pitting defects in storage tanks, pipelines, and thin-walled vessels. Essential for large-scale tank integrity assessments, conducted under ASTM E709 and EN ISO 9934-3 standards.

Portable Hardness Testing

Measures surface hardness of large and immovable components in foundries, metal processing plants, and on-site applications. Performed in accordance with ASTM A956 and EN ISO 16859 standards.

Vacuum Testing

A leak detection method for welded joints and enclosed systems, using a vacuum box and specialized solution to identify air bubble formations at leak points. Commonly used for storage tanks, pressure vessels, and piping systems, following ASTM E515 and EN 1593 standards.

X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) Analysis

A non-destructive technique used to analyze crystal structures, phase compositions, and internal material characteristics. Essential for evaluating heat-treated materials, coatings, and structural quality control. Applied in metallurgy, ceramics, polymers, and composites, conducted under ASTM E975, ISO 21432, and EN 13925 standards.

Thermal Analysis (DSC, TGA, DTA)

Thermal analysis assesses material response to temperature changes to evaluate thermal stability. Methods include:
• Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC): Determines melting point, glass transition temperature, and phase transformations. Applied in plastics, composites, and metals.
• Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA): Measures mass loss at increasing temperatures, determining decomposition temperature and thermal resistance. Used for polymers, ceramics, and coatings.
• Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA): Analyzes heat reactions, identifying exothermic and endothermic processes in materials. Used for heat treatment control and ceramic analysis.
These tests are essential for optimizing production processes, ensuring material quality, and evaluating long-term performance. Conducted under ASTM E473, ISO 11357, and EN ISO 11358 standards.
