Our suite of services includes: Radiographic | Ultrasonics | Magnetic Particle | Liquid Penetrant | Visual | Additional Services Radiographic Radiographic examination employs a source of radiation, such as an X-ray tube or a radioactive isotope, to penetrate the material and produce a volumetric image. METHODS Computed Radiography Conventional Film Radiography » Click here to learn more about Digital or Computed RT Examination Uses USES Weld Quality Profile Castings Failure Analysis DTS is proud to be an innovative leader in this method. Through research and training, we have utilized this approach instead of other methods that are higher cost and more time consuming. This method is showcased in every industry DTS serves. The link above provides additional detail. « Back to the top Ultrasonics Ultrasonic examination employs high-frequency sound waves to penetrate components allowing the analyzation of reflected sound for determination of internal quality, overall thickness, and other material properties. METHODS Longitudinal Wave Shearwave Linear Phased Array Time of Flight Diffraction (TOFD) USES Thickness Boiler & Piping Surveys Flow Accelerated Corrosion Studies Volumetric Testing This technology is utilized in many industries including refinery, gas/oil, manufacturing, fabrication, and power. It serves as a tool to help determine wastage rates of tubing as well as pipe and weld integrity. « Back to the top Magnetic Particle Magnetic Particle examination detects discontinuities in ferrous metal at or near the surface after a magnetic field has been induced in the component and the application of a ferrite powder or liquid solution. The applied media is attracted to the magnetic flux leakage of the discontinuity. This method allows visual interpretation of the discontinuity. METHODS Wet Fluorescent Dry Particle Contrast EQUIPMENT Yokes 700 amp Machine Prods & Coils 6000 amp Machine Prods, Coils, Head Shots DTS performs Magnetic Particle exams in a multitude of industries including refinery, oil/gas, and power. Our experience includes piping, structural steel, turbine components, fabrication and various others. « Back to the top Liquid Penetrant The Liquid Penetrant method employs capillary action to expose surface flaws in any solid material. Visible or fluorescent dye on a contrasting background allows for enhanced visual inspection. METHODS Visible Wet Fluorescent TECHNIQUE Water Washable Solvent Removable DTS performs Penetrant Examinations on various materials such as stainless steel and aluminum. Every industry we serve, including power, gas/oil, refinery, aerospace, and manufacturing, utilize this method. « Back to the top Visual Most codes and standards require visual VT exams as the first NDE method to assure proper adherence to product design and quality. This step, if followed properly by individuals trained and certified to thoroughly inspect and disposition the components, can save a project the time and cost of performing further NDE prematurely. METHODS Direct Remote Crawler Systems Articulating Video-Scope EQUIPMENT Measuring Tools Weld Gauges for Size and Fit-up Specialized Lighting We perform visual inspections prior to every NDE method. This is common in every industry we work in at every location. It is the basic starting point of every inspection. « Back to the top Additional Services ADDITIONAL TESTING METHODS Various methods of inspections are required for the many industries DTS services.
