Worried about the integrity of your welds and the safety of your structures?
Certified Weld Inspection might be just what you need. It’s all about ensuring that your welds meet the highest standards of quality and safety. By having your welds inspected by certified professionals, you can prevent failures, comply with regulations, and keep your operations running smoothly.
Certified Weld Inspection involves a thorough examination of welds by qualified inspectors to verify that they meet specific standards and requirements. These inspections ensure that welds are sound, free from defects, and capable of performing their intended function.
Our inspectors are certified according to industry standards, such as the Australian Institute of Non-Destructive Testing (AINDT) and other relevant qualifications. They use various methods to assess the quality of welds, including visual examination and Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) techniques.
Certified Weld Inspection is crucial across various sectors where welding plays a vital role:
Here’s how we carry out Certified Weld Inspection:
Apply NDT methods to detect hidden defects without damaging the weld:
