A process for detecting surface and shallow subsurface discontinuities in ferromagnetic materials such as iron, nickel, cobalt, and some of their alloys.
Industrial Radiography (RT)
Gamma rays penetrate solid material and generate an image on film (traditional) or phosphor plates (computed radiography) to view the internals and check the soundness of the material.

Detects casting, forging and welding surface defects such as hairline cracks, surface porosity, leaks in new products, and fatigue cracks on in-service components.

We have multiple CWIs to perform final weld checks, monitor welding processes, review documents and more.
