Methods

What we inspect with

Visual Testing

CWI-led visual weld inspection to AWS D1.1, ASME IX, and API standards.

Ultrasonic Testing

Shear-wave and straight-beam UT for welds, plate, and castings.

PAUT

Phased Array UT

Encoded phased-array scanning as a radiography alternative, with full data records.

Magnetic Particle

Wet and dry method MT for surface and near-surface indications.

Liquid Penetrant

Visible and fluorescent PT for nonferrous and finished surfaces.

CWI

CWI services and QA staffing

AWS Certified Welding Inspectors for procedure and welder qualification, in-process surveillance, and final acceptance. Short-notice coverage and long-term site assignments.

Radiography via licensed partners

For work that requires film, we coordinate radiography through licensed partners. For most weld volumes we recommend PAUT: encoded data, no radiation permitting, faster turnaround.

Engagements

How an engagement runs

1 · Scope

Code, method, location, dates, acceptance criteria. We quote a rate and availability the same business day.

2 · Qualify

Inspectors are matched to your requirements: certifications, operator qualification programs, site access, and any client-specific training.

3 · Dispatch

Trained on your procedures before arrival. Company equipment, consumables, and calibrated instruments with current cert records.

4 · Report

Signed, traceable reports delivered on your format or ours. Records retained to contract requirements.

Deliverables

The report is the product.

Every job closes with a signed inspection report traceable to the governing code edition, the applicable procedure revision, and the certification record of the inspector who performed the work.
