The process of Non-Destructive Testing determines the existence of flaws, discontinuities, leaks, contamination,thermal anomalies, or imperfections in welded sections, materials, components or assemblies without impairing the integrity or functionof theinspected component.
Non-Destructive Testing is becoming increasingly important to the design-through-manufacture process, life extension process of critical operating plant, condition monitoring. NDT is a quality assurance tool which can provide impressive results when used correctly. It requires an understanding of the capabilities and limitations of various methods available and knowledge of the relevant standards and specifications for performing the tests.
Materials, products and equipment which fail to achieve their design requirements or projected life due to undetected defects may require expensive repair or early replacement, such defects may also be the cause of unsafe conditions or catastrophic failure, as well as loss of revenue due to unplanned plant shutdown, this is were AIS come into their own we have the capability to taylor an inspection method designed to meet our customers requirements & expectation
