The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies performs various NDI test services to help companies maintain their equipment and large structures.
Nondestructive Inspection
Nondestructive inspection, or NDI, is a testing method that examines components, structures, and materials without destroying or impacting the structural integrity of a sample. NDI is essential for reducing costs, preventing accidents, and providing important product information.
NDI commonly detects flaws, such as:
- Elongated Voids
- Lack of Fusions
- Porosity
- Quench Cracks
- Offsets or Mismatched
- Burn-through
- Cold Laps
- Slag Inclusions
- Lack of Penetration
- Crown Undercuts
- Oxide Inclusions
- Tungsten Inclusions
- Longitudinal Cracks
- Shrinkage Porosity
