Inspection resources
Our inspection resources include Hexagon and Mitutoyo CMMs, spectrometer, ferrite measurement, Brinell and Rockwell hardness and roughness measurement. Project test routes can also include tensile or impact testing, penetrant testing, ultrasonic examination and radiographic examination where the governing specification and geometry make those methods appropriate. Corrosion or other specialist testing is coordinated to the agreed requirement.
Traceability
Investment-cast and machined components can be supplied with traceable identification, including laser or mechanical marking where suitable. The required level of heat, batch, operation and report traceability should be stated in the RFQ so identification and document flow can be planned from the start.
Inspection planning by feature
- CMM for datum-related geometry and complex profiles
- Dedicated gauges for repeated production checks
- Surface-roughness measurement for functional or hygienic surfaces
- Material verification and mechanical testing according to the purchase specification
- NDT according to risk, geometry and acceptance standard
- Pressure testing for finished boundary components
- Static or dynamic balance verification for specified rotating components
