UTEX Scientific, a leading developer of advanced nondestructive testing (NDT) software, instrumentation, and automated inspection systems, announced the acquisition of PA-CAT Inc., an innovative phased array corrosion analysis technology company, from Holloway NDT & Engineering Inc.

4 Point NDT invites you to witness the world of non-destructive testing (NDT) and see how we keep the world safe, from airplanes, bridges, pipeline, amusement parks, nuclear, energy, and more.

A Stafford firm has doubled the workforce and appointed two new directors, who have spent a combined 30 years working there, as part of expansion plans due to continued success.

Waygate Technologies, a Baker Hughes business and global leader in nondestructive testing (NDT) solutions for industrial inspection, unveiled its new extremely high-resolution computed tomography (CT) system, Phoenix Nanotom® HR (High Resolution).

I was a whistleblower who exposed fraudulent activities at Ultrasonic Research and Testing Laboratory in Dallas, Texas, back in 1991. The reaction of some people in the nondestructive testing (NDT) community surprised me since the industry is a close-knit group with many connections between individuals.

In production, every aircraft structure component will undergo inspection by one of the primary NDT methods. In-service aircraft will experience subsequent nondestructive testing, eddy current inspection being one the primary methods. This article serves to highlight the more common forms of eddy current applications on in-service aircraft.

Two-dimensional and 3D X-ray technologies are among the most useful nondestructive testing methods. They enable the inspection of an object’s internal features without having to disassemble the sample or destroy the part in the process. 

Finding new talent can be an extremely difficult process for any organization, in any industry.

Over the last 10 to 15 years, NDT methods have grown smarter and smarter. New methods have been developed and old methods have been improved. Some of today’s NDT is leaps and bounds ahead of where it used to be. 

It is true that magnetic particle testing (MT) is one of the oldest NDT methods, and over the years has proven itself to be not only reliable, but cost effective, when it is applied properly with qualified personnel.
