Why industries need NDT

NDT is a crucial requirement in many industries, as various legal regulations mandate it. Companies operating heavy machinery such as construction cranes and massive storage tanks used in mining, infrastructure development, and the oil and gas sector must regularly conduct NDT to ensure compliance with industry codes and standards.

This profession has evolved into a complex field that demands dedication, extensive training, and practical experience. Professionals in this field must possess the expertise that enables them to apply their knowledge and skills across diverse industries effectively.

The team members at Eagle Eye NDT have a deep understanding of code requirements and specifications across a wide range of industries. If you have any inquiries related to code inspections, don't hesitate to contact us. Our expert knowledge, confidence, and years of experience enable us to plan and adapt to the unique requirements of each job.

Eagle Eye NDT is a certified company recognized by the Canadian Welding Bureau (CWB) and the American Welding Society (AWS). As an indigenous company, we are fully equipped to support your industry's inspection needs with NDT-certified inspection teams.

Mining

Heavy equipment inspection is critical to ensuring that operations continue without interruption. Every mining operation requires regular inspections to remain efficient. 

 

In addition to the heavy equipment and the need for asset inspection, mining has surface mills and fuel storage tanks that require API 653 and API 510 inspections.

When these services are required in hard-to-access locations, rope-access certified inspectors are required. As points of failure that can result in environmental damage and other hazards, these tanks are heavily regulated by the Code of Federal Regulations, title 40, part 280. 

Eagle Eye testers are trained and certified in understanding these and other related regulations to ensure that when our inspections are carried out, they are thorough, accurate, and meet the regulation standards for a given site.  Our inspectors are underground Common Core certified. 


The Methods We Use In Mining:
 

  • EM Testing of Wire Ropes
  • Storage Tank Inspections
  • Mobile Equipment/Stationary Inspections
  • Plastic Pipe Inspection
  • Ring/Gear Inspection
  • Drum Inspection
  • Pressure Vessel Inspection
  • Fuel Tank Inspections

Structural & Building Inspection 

Building inspectors need to have the skills necessary to navigate the local legal requirements and building codes. From visual inspections that can recognize water damage, to the stability of load bearing beams and foundations. Regular Non-Destructive testing is an important component of all structural and building inspections. 

Bridge Inspection and Assessment


Regular inspections are a fundamental requirement for every bridge. Various tests are conducted on bridges, ranging from using ground-penetrating radar to assess bridge pilings to visual inspections to identify damage mechanisms affecting the bridge deck.

Eagle Eye NDT specializes in a comprehensive range of services essential for bridge inspections. This includes ensuring that load-bearing requirements and structural designs are met.

To prevent bridge failures, nondestructive evaluation techniques are crucial in adhering to national inspection standards (NIBS). According to MAP-21 and the Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation Program, consistent and periodic inspections are mandated for all bridges. Eagle Eye NDT is well-equipped with the tools, FHWA certifications, and expertise to conduct standard and detailed safety inspections, particularly for identifying deficiencies that may not be easily detectable through routine procedures.

These bridge tests are not optional; they are legally required to guarantee that bridges ensure safe load capacities.




Cranes, Lifting Equipment and Devices

Cranes and other heavy equipment used in construction are strictly regulated in order to ensure safe operation and fitness for purpose.  Working equipment needs to be safe and reliable. Eagle Eye NDT provides on site inspection that can detect metal fatigue and other unseen damage to equipment components.   


Regular inspection is critical in preventing accidents, and ensuring the continued productivity of costly equipment investments.

Nuclear Energy

Modern nuclear energy is green energy, low emission, very safe, and very efficient.

To make ensure power plants are built and remain safe, Non-Destructive testing  is required from start to finish. Beginning with testing of all components that are used in the construction of plants. By following the best practices and legal requirements, thorough inspections, and measured results,  new power plants are constructed with safety in mind.
During plant operation, regular inspection of components like pressure vessels, pressure piping, seals and welds are just some of NDT services required to maintain plant operational safety requirements.

Power

Large power plants have zero tolerance for failure and stringent testing requirements. Power plants require NDT services to ensure safe operation. All power plants, including coal, oil, and gas, all depend on NDT to detect flaws in turbines, tubing, and related systems. Renewable power plants including hydropower and wind similarly have regulations to regularly test their hardware and systems integrity.

As with other industries, power plants of all types are heavily regulated with legal and environmental requirements.

Industrial Manufacturing/ Fabrication


Heavy manufacturing companies need NDT. It’s common use is to ensure product quality prior as part of QC/QA. Steel, pipe, and tubing manufacturers need to inspect weld and material integrity. Manufacturers who produce everything from engine and power turbines, to large vessels and ships ensure that appropriate specifications are met through the use of NDT. In addition to non destructive testing, some manufactured materials and parts require destructive testing techniques to be applied. In these cases NDT works hand in hand with other testing methods to ensure that products are safe from voids, delamination, density variations, stress, damage, and foreign materials. 


Pulp & Paper

The pulp and paper industry trusts Eagle Eye NDT for cost effective and innovative solutions.

Inspection services prove fitness for service on boilers and digesters, high pressure pipes, and other mechanical components. Ultrasonic thickness testing and examination of welds are just two of the inspection services used to insure mechanical integrity of components. 


Pipelines

Pipelines are one of the safest methods for transporting large quantities of petroleum products from refiners to end consumers. To maintain that safety, pipelines are subject to regular Non-Destructive Testing and inspection. 


Onsite ultrasonic testing of welds and pipe thickness as well as visual and magnetic particle testing for voids, cracks, corrosion and penetration, helps to insure that pipes are operational and fit for service. In many cases, hard to access pipelines require rope access services to get the job done. 


Eagle Eye trains and uses certified professionals for pipeline testing and inspection.

Refining, Petrochemicals and Chemical

Refining, an industry that is broad reaching and critical to national infrastructure and the global economy relies on NDT to prevent accidents and maximize the value of investments. There isn’t an aspect of the oil and gas refinement industry that doesn’t rely in some way on NDT. Refineries are continuously employing NDT teams to perform inspection of pipes, risers, tanks, welds and large forgings.
