Similar to eddy current testing, this test method uses an internal probe to inspect heat exchangertubes. But unlike eddy current, ultrasonic inspection is the basis of the method. The IRIS…
Eddy current testing (ECT) is a procedure commonly used to inspect heat exchanger and boiler tubing. This method uses the principals of electromagnetic induction to detect flaws or wall loss…
Mechanical Integrity (MI) can be defined as the management of critical process equipment to ensure it is designed and installed correctly and that it is operated and maintained properly. MI…
We previously discussed how straight beam ultrasonic testing (UT) can be used for inspection and thickness measurement of plates and other flat objects. Welds cannot usually be inspected with straight…
We always like to showcase the big equipment but we enjoy building the small ones too! Here’s a look at a unique project that Ward recently completed this past month…
