JVIDÊÓƵ’s Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) and Inspection services help you ensure your products' integrity and reliability while in-service and save you time and money when evaluating your products, troubleshooting, or carrying out research.
What is non-destructive testing (NDT)?
NDT covers a broad group of techniques used to evaluate the properties of a material, component, assembly, part, product, weld, or system, without materially affecting the integrity of the unit being inspected or investigated under the test procedure.
Non-destructive testing services
The NDT service methods we offer are designed to comply with a variety of industry standards, unique customer requirements, government contracts, and military specifications. We serve many sectors and can test metallic and composite materials from raw materials such as sheet, plate, bar, and pipe to stand-alone components.
We use ASNT Central Certification Program (ACCP), SNT-TC-1A certified technicians, and Certified Weld Inspectors (CWIs) to deliver a full range of NDT services. Our experts assist clients in projects ranging from material analysis or product qualification testing to quality assurance and audit programs.

JVIDÊÓƵ has one of the most comprehensive ranges of non destructive testing services.Â
Industrial Computed TomographyÂ
JVIDÊÓƵ offers high-resolution industrial computed tomography to provide a detailed examination of components that can be used for production defect detection, dimensional inspection, and reverse engineering.
Radiographic Inspection (RT)
JVIDÊÓƵ has the capabilities to perform conventional film radiography to Computed and Digital radiography, a highly sensitive method that produces an image in a digital format that is viewable on any laptop or computer.
Eddy Current Testing (ET)
Eddy current techniques are commonly used for the non destructive examination and condition monitoring of a large variety of metallic structures, including heat exchanger tubes, aircraft fuselage, and aircraft structural components.
Liquid Penetrant Inspection (LPI)
LPI has the advantage of being able to detect flaws in nonmetallic and non ferromagnetic materials and is also one of the most portable of the surface inspection methods, allowing us to conduct a comprehensive onsite penetrant inspection.
Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI)
Magnetic particle inspection is one of the fastest and most cost effective non destructive examinations available for ferromagnetic materials such as castings, weldments, forgings, machined or stamped parts. JVIDÊÓƵ performs on-site evaluations using portable equipment and in-lab inspections on large components weighing up to 12,000 pounds.
Ultrasonic Testing (UT)
Our inspectors use ultrasonic waveforms to pass through a material to detect flaws and provide a complete volumetric inspection. Contact testing, Phased Array and the Immersion technique are available for complex geometric parts that otherwise may not be subject to complete volumetric inspection.
Visual Inspection
JVIDÊÓƵ provides a number of visual testing services that in most cases can be the first method of inspection to detect defects and observe problems in the earliest stages of fabrication.
Non Destructive Hardness Testing
JVIDÊÓƵ supports a variety of portable and non destructive hardness testing methods. Methods such as UCI (Ultrasonic Contact Impedance), TIV (Through Indenter Viewing), and improvements in the rebound method (Leeb) provide a critical solution for verification of hardness on large components with complex geometries.
Linear Accelerator Testing
JVIDÊÓƵ's 6Mev Linear Accelerator emits high-energy radiation to detect defects in weld quality, castings, and structures to enable quick and efficient radiographic testing of think steel castings.Â
Dimensional Inspection
For projects that require accurate dimensional measurements, JVIDÊÓƵ offers a broad range of 2D and 3D metrology services.
Weld Inspection Services
JVIDÊÓƵ's weld inspection services ensure your welds meet required quality standards, leading to reduced failure rates and extending the potential operating life of components.Â
NDT Field Services
When employed at critical stages of the manufacturing or fabrication process, our NDE technicians work in the field to optimize production and ensure the quality of your finished product.
