Caspian NDT

Ultrasonic Testing, also known as ultrasonic inspection, is an NDT service that can both detect flaws in a component and measure material thickness. Ultrasonic inspection makes use of sound waves to detect defects and It can be used on a variety of materials, such as steel, other metals, and alloys to detect and map corrosions.

Forged bars and plates undergo tremendous levels of stress and as such it’s incredibly important to make sure they are up to the required standards for continued use. Our technicians are qualified to PCN Level 2 to inspect plates, bars, billets and general forgings.

Magnetic particle inspection (MPI) is one of the most widely used non-destructive testing methods for identifying both surface and near sub-subsurface defects on ferromagnetic welds and all other parts.

Dye penetrant testing (DPI) is widely considered the most common non-destructive testing method, enabling our technicians to detect surface flaws such as hairline cracks, surface porosity and fatigue cracks on in-service components on a wide range of materials including stainless steel, aluminium and various cast components.

Caspian NDT has been hired by many local authorities and contractors across the UK for its lighting column inspections. Their structural testing of lighting columns includes detailed structural testing of both concrete and steel, loss of section monitoring both below and above the ground, hot-swaged joint assessment, Ultrasonic testing, and Magnetic particle inspection.
