Metal NDT Testing
Examine metal components and welds using methods suited to the material and inspection scope.
Discuss this service
Overview
Define what you need to understand.
Metal components and welds can present different inspection questions. Material, geometry, surface condition and access all influence which methods may be appropriate for the requirement.
We discuss the component and the information you need before defining the inspection scope. The test methods, preparation, reporting requirements and any specialist delivery arrangements are confirmed before work is agreed.
Scope to discuss
Tests and investigations.
The inspection scope is selected for the component, material, access and required findings. Tell us the concern you need the inspection to address.
Related material and condition investigations
- Hardness testing
- Thermal scanning
Hardness testing is a related material test, rather than a blanket non-destructive inspection method. Thermal-scanning suitability and availability are confirmed separately.
Radiography scope to confirm
- Radiographic testing
- Radiographic film interpretation
Radiography is not offered as an automatically bookable test here. Authorised delivery arrangements, suitable personnel, site controls and availability must be confirmed before a scope is agreed.
Where it is used
Put the investigation in context.
- Inspection requirements for steel components and welds
- Project-specified fabrication or maintenance investigations
- Thickness-measurement requirements on accessible components
- Investigations into an observed material or component concern
Questions before you enquire
A little more clarity.
These answers are a starting point. The scope of an assignment is agreed around your project.
How do I choose a metal NDT method?
Start with the component, material, geometry and inspection question. Access, surface condition and specification requirements also matter. The appropriate method is agreed after those details are reviewed.
Does the surface need to be prepared?
Preparation depends on the selected inspection method and component. Discuss coatings, surface condition and access before scheduling work so the required preparation can be agreed.
Can you investigate a thickness-measurement requirement?
Ultrasonic thickness measurement can be discussed as part of the inspection scope. Share the component and access details so suitability, measurement locations and reporting requirements can be agreed.
Is radiographic testing confirmed as available?
Not automatically. Radiography and film interpretation require a separate discussion to confirm delivery arrangements, personnel, site controls and availability before work can be agreed.
Your site. Your requirements.
