Non-Destructive Testing

We are one of the leading Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) companies in the UK and we provide individual and detailed reports for each method of NDT testing.

Our work typically addresses weld integrity for carbon steels, stainless steels, alloys, components, all structures and vessels. We work precisely to customer specifications and test raw materials as well as components – from large gas silos, bridges and staircases to small aerospace components, floor claddings, overlay build-up on corroded surfaces and hard facing build-up on digger buckets. Liquid dye penetrant testing, magnetic particle testing and many more NDT methods are available.

What is Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)?

Non-destructive testing as the name suggests is any technique used to examine damage on welded appliances and structures without compromising their structural integrity. Quality, durability and cost-effectiveness are features of Non-destructive Testing methods.

There are several other terminologies used to describe the same procedures. Elsewhere, you may come across terms such as NDT inspection or NDT investigation which are the same as Non-destructive Testing.

NDT testing procedures are cost-effective as no damage results from the test and therefore quality is maintained and the durability of appliances heightened. Non-destructive investigations are widely used in aerospace, the medical field and art, to test and guarantee the functionality of carbon steel, stainless steel, alloys, apparatuses, all structures and containers.
