NDE/NDT

Machined parts and industrial structures can be complex systems that experience extreme loads and fatigue during their lifetime. Non-destructive evaluation (NDE), or Non-destructive testing (NDT), enables the inspection of these components without permanently altering the equipment. It is a highly valuable technique that is often used to validate the integrity of materials, detect instabilities, discover performance outside of tolerances, identify failed components, or highlight an inadequate control system.

Conventional non-destructive testing is often the starting point in establishing or evaluating the condition of equipment.It is comprised of a number of different testing methods, most of which rely on either sound or electromagnetic waves to examine materials. TEAM offers a wide array of conventional NDT applications for turnaround and on-stream inspection activities.
