SPECIALIZED INSPECTION CAPABILITIES

PAUT, TOFD & SPECIALIZED INSPECTION SOLUTIONS.

Whether the scope involves encoded PAUT weld inspection, time of flight diffraction (TOFD), automated ultrasonic corrosion mapping, or portable 3D scanning, MNT selects methods to match the component, examination objectives, and applicable procedures. We support pipeline operators, construction contractors, and fabrication teams with recorded data and practical technical communication.

01 / ULTRASONIC EXAMINATION

PHASED ARRAY ULTRASONIC TESTING (PAUT)

Our phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) services support weld examination and pipeline integrity applications. Electronically controlled beam steering and focusing allow detailed inspection data to be recorded for discontinuity detection, characterization, and evaluation in accordance with the applicable procedure.

Pipeline long-seam examinations
Girth-weld inspections
Encoded weld scanning
Crack and weld discontinuity detection
Digital examination records and reporting

02 / WELD EXAMINATION

TIME OF FLIGHT DIFFRACTION (TOFD)

TOFD uses diffracted ultrasonic signals to detect and size certain discontinuities. Depending on the application, it may be used alongside PAUT to provide complementary weld examination information.

Weld discontinuity detection
Through-wall flaw sizing
Recorded ultrasonic inspection data
Complementary PAUT and TOFD examinations

03 / CORROSION EVALUATION

AUTOMATED ULTRASONIC CORROSION MAPPING

Encoded ultrasonic mapping captures wall-thickness measurements across an inspected area, supporting detailed assessment and documentation of metal loss.

HydroFORM and FlexoFORM applications
Automated thickness mapping
Corrosion feature characterization
Digital thickness and inspection records
Integrity excavation support

04 / DIMENSIONAL ASSESSMENT

CREAFORM 3D SCANNING

Portable 3D scanning captures detailed surface geometry to support dimensional measurements, feature characterization, and digital documentation of inspected components.

Corrosion feature geometry measurement
Surface profile documentation
Dimensional inspection
Digital 3D models and records
Component geometry comparison
