Service Overview

Find defects that are difficult to see.

Liquid Penetrant Testing uses a low-viscosity penetrant to locate cracks, laps, seams and other discontinuities open to the surface.

After surface preparation, penetrant is applied and allowed to enter fine openings. Excess material is removed and a developer draws out trapped penetrant, creating visible indications for evaluation by our trained technicians.

Inspection Process

A controlled approach from start to report.

Every assignment follows a clear workflow designed around safe execution, reliable observations and useful documentation.

01

Surface Preparation

The test area is cleaned so penetrant can enter open discontinuities.

02

Penetrant Application

Penetrant is applied and retained for the specified dwell time.

03

Development

Developer draws penetrant from discontinuities to form visible indications.

04

Evaluation

Indications are assessed and clearly recorded in the inspection report.

Key Applications

Built for demanding industrial environments.

Suitable for many non-porous metals and components where access to the test surface is available.

01

Weld Inspection

Detection of surface cracks, porosity and relevant weld discontinuities.

02

Castings and Forgings

Surface examination of manufactured components and critical areas.

03

Machined Parts

Inspection of finished surfaces without affecting component usability.

04

Maintenance Checks

Focused examination during shutdown and preventive maintenance work.
