Non-destructive testing

Non-destructive testing (NDT) makes it possible to assess the integrity of industrial structures without damaging them, to determine acceptability thresholds and to detect defects during condition diagnosis, so that the element under assessment can be replaced or reinforced as soon as possible without interrupting activity. Thanks to state-of-the-art instruments, Eurocontrol can carry out non-destructive testing of your production and structures using a wide range of means: ultrasound, acoustic emission, liquid penetrant, magnetic particles, radiography or thermography.

Destructive testing

Welded joints can be checked by various destructive testing techniques (microstructure, tensile tests, bending tests, microhardness filiations, macrographic examinations, chemical analyses, etc.) to ensure their conformity. These destructive tests are used to determine the characteristics of a weld and to certify the correct choice of welding parameters. The same applies to texture tests.
