EXPERT METALLURGICAL TESTING

The processes used by our certified weld inspector are in accordance with your materials specification. We can provide a one-stop-shop for your inspection needs.  In the process of inspection includes many tests and examinations. Some of these processes are:

• VISUAL INSPECTION OF WELDS

In this process, we will look at the material to identify any visual indications. A thorough examination of the material in its as-received state, as well as post-test, is observed.

• TESTING OF WELDS

These tests require the inspection techniques used before a metallurgical examination. They are characterized by testing the material in its as-welded state to observe any indication or discontinuities present in the weld. These tests allow a better understanding of the integrity of the welds both in developing a welding procedure or a qualification by an individual welder.

• METALLURGICAL TESTING OF WELDS

The mechanical processes of Tensile Testing, Hardness Testing, Bend Testing, and Charpy Impact Testing provide invaluable information about the strength and hardness of the welded material.

MACRO & MICRO STRUCTURE EXAMINATION

Micro and Macro examinations assess the structure, quality and properties of material.

The application of hardness testing enables you to evaluate a material’s properties, such as strength, ductility and wear resistance, and so helps you determine whether a material or material treatment is suitable for the purpose you require.
