When dealing with exploitation licenses and preventive maintenance of technical installations, Non Destructive Testing and Examination (NDT/NDE) are indispensable techniques. NDT include several methods of examining materials, components and connections in order to identify and quantify internal defects and degradations.

NDT/NDE offer also the necessary guarantees when quality, expense saving, business security and –safety is in order, for both existing and new installations. NDT/NDE decrease the risk of leakage or other defects, which increase the business integrity and safety within the installation and can save expenses.

The aim of NDT is to assess material properties before they result in failure - based on recognized acceptance criteria or degradation profiles defined along the years - to ensure product quality and performance upon production, as well as to ensure the safe utilization of engineering structures.

The SGS development and consulting team is at your disposal for your complex test requirements. Our variety of equipment and personnel offers technically and financially suitable methods – be it traditional techniques such as Magnetic Particle-, Ultrasonic-, X-ray- or Dye Penetrant testing, or specialised examinations such as Time of Flight Diffraction, Guided Wave or Magnetic Flux Leakage. Our NDT operators provide the certainty needed and guide you in choosing the most appropriate and efficient NDT method or combination of methods, either for single components or large projects.
