NDT Testing
At Thos Begbie, we specialise in advanced Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) solutions that ensure the integrity and reliability of your assets while preventing costly downtime and damage. Our team uses state-of-the-art technology and techniques to perform thorough inspections without compromising the material being tested.
NDT Testing Solutions
3D Scanning
Our cutting-edge 3D scanning services provide highly accurate and detailed measurements of complex components. This advanced method enables rapid assessments, precise documentation and detailed analysis, helping you optimise design and detect defects in real-time.
Thermal Image Testing
With thermal imaging, we detect and diagnose hidden issues that might otherwise go unnoticed. By capturing temperature variations across a surface, this non-invasive method highlights potential problem areas like electrical faults, insulation gaps and moisture buildup. At Thos Begbie, we also utilise thermal imaging to validate actual thermal profiles, thereby providing an indication of how components will perform in operation. Our team of experts analyses and compares the thermal data to provide expert guidance to our customers.
Dye Penetrant Testing (DPT)
Dye penetrant testing is a simple and effective way to reveal surface-breaking defects in non-porous materials. By applying a visible or fluorescent dye, we are able to locate even the smallest cracks and flaws on parts that are critical to your operation.
Magnetic Particle Testing (MPT)
Magnetic particle testing is ideal for detecting surface and near-surface defects in ferromagnetic materials. Using magnetic fields and fine iron particles, we can pinpoint areas of stress, cracks and other imperfections that could impact your equipment’s performance.
Ultrasonic Testing (UT)
Ultrasonic testing uses high-frequency sound waves to detect internal flaws, measure material thickness and assess structural integrity. Our skilled technicians can identify corrosion, cracks and other defects in materials without needing to cut or damage the object being tested.
Visual Testing (VT)
Visual testing remains one of the most common and effective inspection methods, requiring no special equipment beyond the human eye. Our trained inspectors use their expertise to identify issues such as corrosion, deformation or wear and tear, ensuring that all visual cues are thoroughly examined.
Welding Inspections
Our comprehensive welding inspection services assess weld quality and compliance with industry standards. We ensure that welds meet the highest structural integrity requirements, detecting issues such as porosity, cracks and misalignment that could compromise safety and functionality.
