Materials testing has to fall back on Non-destructive Testing when the sample being checked cannot be damaged or rendered dysfunctional. These tests are non-invasive and include Ultrasound, Endoscopy, Radiography, Visual Testing, Magnetic Testing, Eddy Current and some Specialized Testing Methods. Among the services for Specialized Testing are included Hardness, Laser Examination, Soil Testing and rope access Inspection Services.
One of the biggest problems in a large industry such as the Aerospace, Pulp & Paper or Pipeline and Refining & Petrochemical is how to conduct a routine inspection or investigate a costly breakdown quickly and safely without interfering with the ongoing production process. The earlier process of scaffolding firstly brought in too many hindrances in production on account of the space scaffolding took up. Secondly, large amount of time and money was spent in putting up the scaffolding each time and tearing it down again. The rope access Inspection Services solved this problem by placing skilled and certified technicians along with their test equipment by rope access in seemingly inaccessible areas of the industry in order to carry out either routine inspection or a Non Destructive Testing to diagnose the actual cause of the breakdown in the plant. The testing could be in Radiography, Magnetic Testing or Ultrasound Testing among others.
The use of this Specialized Testing service avoids needless hazard zones thereby increasing productivity and cost effectiveness while drastically reducing risk factor. Cost benefits accruing more than 75% have resulted from logging more than 100,000 hours of rope access time without a single injury.
