Magnetic Particle

Magnetic Particle Inspection (MT or MPI) is an inspection method for locating surface or shallow sub-surface defects on ferromagnetic material. Because of the variety of equipment and materials, there is essentially no limit to the size and shape of parts that can be inspected using MT. Magnetic Particle Inspections can be performed on castings, forgings, welds and machined parts, providing that they are of a material that can be strongly magnetized and the surface is sufficiently clean and accessible. IIA can perform both wet and dry MPI methods.

Ultrasonics

Ultrasonic Thickness Testing (UTT) is a volumetric non-destructive testing method that uses sound waves to propagate through an object. IIA Lab Services performs both contact and immersive UT with capabilities for pulse echo, transmissional, straight beam, angle beam (shear wave) testing, as well as advanced phased array techniques.
