Portable INSTRUMENTS AND APPLICATIONS

MRUT describes a suite of techniques used to perform fast scanning on exposed tubes and tanks as well as inspections of inaccessible areas from a fixed position.

LRUT provides inspection of long range of pipes up to 100m for a faster screening of large distances of pipes.

Non-contact measurements from -30ºC to 650ºC without couplant, fast scanning, with EMAT. High-accuracy thickness measurement for metals and non-metals without couplant with DCUT.

Stress measurement on railroad wheels, pipelines and plates.

Inspection of welds with Shear Vertical, Shear Horizontal and Guided Waves.

Bolt load measurement without couplant

Thickness measurement of boiler tube walls, HCC detection.

Ultrasonic corrosion mapping is a quantitative way to inspect a material where oxidation or erosion has reduced its thickness.

Acoustic Emission technique allows early detection and monitoring of active corrosion in assets, including non-accessible areas where corrosion proliferates between consecutive monitoring periods.

The aerospace industry is driving a need for new composite inspection techniques that can rapidly scan large structures and provide quantitative data on the material integrity.

Gas valve leak detection by means of Non Destructive Evaluation tools is based recording acoustic emission signals generated by the turbulent flow in the leak hole.

The use of MISTRAS’ Acoustic Emission systems along with NOESIS software allows performing advanced signal processing based on neural networks and pattern recognition algorithms.

High voltage lines and substations are replacing conventional porcelain insulators with crimped metal-composite electrical insulators
