Rope Access Inspection is able to provide clients with specialized NDT methods such as:
- Ultrasonic Flaw Detection (UT)
- Ultrasonic Thickness gauging (UTM)
- Eddy Current Inspection (ET)
- Magnetic Particle Inspection (MT)
- Dye Penetrant Inspection (PT)
- Radiographic X-Ray (RAD)
Ultrasonic Testing (UT) uses high frequency sound energy to conduct inspections and take measurements. UT inspection can be used in various ways, some of them are: flaw detection/evaluation, dimensional measurements, finding out characteristics of certain materials, thickness gauging and many more.
Ultrasonic Testing is a very useful and versatile NDT method. Some of the advantages of ultrasonic inspection combined with rope access are:
- Able to detect both surface and sub-surface discontinuities.
- The depth of penetration for flaw detection & measurement is far greater than that of any other NDT methods.
- Usually only access to one side of the test piece is required.
- UT is highly accurate in determining the flaw / reflector position and able determine size and shape.
- Minimal preparation is required for test piece.
- Specialized electronic equipment provides instant results.
- No need for costly scaffolding to perform routine inspections on pipelines.
- Small hand held machines un-cumbersome and make it easy for rope access ( http://rope-access.co.za ) technicians to access confined spaces.
- Other areas UT is commonly used is on refineries, FPSO’s, tank inspection for corrosion monitoring and assessment.
Please feel free to contact Rope Access Inspection should you require any of the above mentioned services.
