Advanced NDT:

Hi-tech Inspection & Conformity Co. provides a full range of services in the field of Advanced NDT through our regional network. Our specialized applications will help you to enhance inspection quality, simplify processes, speed up your inspection set-ups and realize easier interpretation.

  • Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) This advanced examination technique utilizes a set of ultrasonic testing probes made up of numerous small elements, each of which is pulsed individually with computer-calculated timing allowing higher probability of detection and precise measurement capability. The fleet of OmniScan MX2's and Sonatest Veo+ PA Flaw detectors with various spares and scanners available to carry any job with credible reports by our qualified and trained specialists.

  • Time of Flight Diffraction (ToFD) - is a sensitive and accurate method for the nondestructive testing of welds for defects and is based on the response of the diffracted wave at the tip of an indication. Hi-tech Inspection & Conformity Co. has a wide range of Automatic and Semi-automatic scanners, however every project will be analyzed and all necessary equipment will be stocked up to ensure the quality and efficiency is maintained.

  • Digital Radiography (DR) - technology based on digital detector systems in which the x-ray image is displayed directly on a computer screen without the need for developing chemicals, allowing higher detectability and productivity along with shorter exposure times.

  • Small Controlled Area Radiography (SCAR) - The systems are capable of performing radiography inside a controlled area erected in the heart of the workplace, without disruption to normal operations. Hi-tech Inspection & Conformity Co. ensures all SCAR units are constantly maintained and recharged to ensure safety of the personnel and accurate radiography results.

  • Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) - is a magnetic method of nondestructive testing that is used to detect corrosion and pitting in steel structures, most commonly pipelines and storage tanks. The basic principle is that a powerful magnet is used to magnetize the steel.

  • Corrosion Mapping - Fully equipped corrosion monitoring set with Omniscan MX2 and HydroForm/FlexoForm, RMS scanner available for our clients at any time. Our local specialists are trained and certified by international training schools.

  • Positive Material Identification - is the analysis of a metallic alloy to establish composition by reading the quantities by percentage of its constituent elements. Hi-tech Inspection & Conformity Co. reliable Olympus and Hitachi XRF Analyzers ensure that the client has the most accurate results on the composition of the materials used in the project.

  • IRIS, ECT, RFT - Internal Rotary Inspection System (IRIS) can detect corrosion, pitting and wall loss and is most commonly used for tube inspection in boilers, heat exchangers, air coolers and feed water heaters. It is particularly versatile as it is suitable for both ferrous and non-ferrous materials, and IRIS can be used on a wide range of tube diameters and wall thicknesses.

  • Pulsed Eddy Current - Pulse Eddy Current (PEC)  is used to detect corrosion and wall thickness measurement on relatively small areas without the need to remove insulation prior to testing. Its applications range from corrosion detection and monitoring on pipes and vessels made of carbon steel or low alloy steel without making contact with the steel surface itself.    Benefits Of PEC Array:

  •  Inspects 100% Of The Wall Thickness

  •  Can inspect remaining thickness of a component with a  Liftoff of any non-ferromagnetic form: Insulation with Weather jacket (aluminum, stainless steel, galvanized Steel).

  • Long-range UT - Long-range ultrasonic testing using guided waves is one of the few test methods which is able to examine 100% volume of pipe wall from one tool location so has found widespread applications in non-piggable pipeline where efficient inspection coverage is required or the pipeline in question has hard to reach areas.

  • ​ACFM

Alternating current field measurement (ACFM) is an electromagnetic technique used for the detection and sizing of surface breaking cracks in metallic components and welds. It combines the advantages of the alternating current potential drop (ACPD) technique and eddy current testing (ECT) in that it can measure the size of the defect without calibration and the need for electrical contact.

  • Eddy Current Testing

Eddy current testing is one of many electromagnetic testing methods used in non-destructive testing (NDT) for flaw detection, as well as thickness and conductivity measurements. Eddy current testing uses electromagnetic induction to detect defects in both ferrous and non-ferrous materials by inducing an eddy current field in the specimen under test.
 
Eddy current testing equipment is highly portable, reliable and can detect very small cracks. Results are instant, ideal for on-site testing and plant inspections. One of the main advantages of this technique is that paint and thin coatings (<2mm t) doesn’t need not be removed prior to inspection.

Welds: As eddy current is best used for detecting surface-breaking cracks, this technique is ideal for the in-service inspection of welded structures that are subject to a cyclical loading that can lead to fatigue crack propagation in critical welded areas.

Tubes: Eddy current testing of tubes is an effective way of assessing the condition and lifespan of tubes and is used to detect corrosion, pitting, cracks, erosion and other changes to both the tube’s interior and exterior surfaces.
