The objective of NDE (Non- Destructive Examinations) is to detect discontinuities, flaws and other defects in
a structure or component, not normally detectable by naked-eye, in such a manner that the test does not harm
the material in any way.
We can safely affirm to be the one and only company worldwide able to offer a complete range of NDE techniques specific to the Yachting Industry, all ‘under one roof’. Our portfolio of solutions grants us a unique status that allows us to offer the most suitable NDE technique for the problem at hand rather than "bending" a technique to suit a problem. Moreover, our full range of NDE techniques allows us to confirm flaws by cross-referencing findings employing different techniques.
Our examinations are carried out not by generalist NDE Technicians but by a team of specialist Marine Surveyors / Engineers holding NDE qualifications and with in-depth knowledge of marine structures & systems. Although based in Palma de Mallorca (Spain) our services are offered worldwide.
Our range of services includes both Advanced NDE and Conventional NDE techniques which can be
extremely valuable in a wide spectrum of
applications such as:
Our advanced technology solutions allow our clients to make informed decisions and / or avoid costly
breakdowns.
The choice of a non-destructive technique is not always easy and depends on several parameters:
type of material, thickness, geometry, type of researched defects, accessibility of the structure,
surface, time and cost, etc. The solution is generally a trade-off or the combination of several methods.
