Certified Welding Inspections
Skyview Testing technicians are American Welding Society Certified Welding Inspectors (AWS CWI) or ASNT Level II and Level III certified. Among being certified, we are also MSHA and OSHA compliant and ISNetworld and BROWZ approved.
Advanced Ultrasonic Inspections (Shear Wave, Thickness, Phased Array/PAUT)
Advanced Ultrasonic Inspection is fast and accurate with instant results. This method measures material thickness as well as characterizes and sizes flaws. There are no environmental or safety hazards with ultrasonic testing so work can continue within feet of the area being tested.
Eddy Current (ECT)
Eddy Current uses electromagnetic induction to detect surface and near surface flaws. Skyview Testing offers conventional Eddy Current, as well as Eddy Current Array testing on tubes, heat exchanges, boilers, mining equipment, mill gears, and more.
Magnetic Particle Testing (MT)
Our methods and equipment include prods, yokes, permanent magnets and a stationary magnetic particle bench which utilizes wet fluorescent, visible, or dry powder to maximize accuracy in detecting defects or discontinuities (cracks) near the surface of ferromagnetic metals. MT is effective for final and in-process inspection and quality control, maintenance and overhaul in transportation as well as plant and machine maintenance. It can be used on wet or dry surfaces, is quick and cost-effective and can be done on site or at our location.
Liquid Penetrant Testing (PT)
Dye Penetrant Inspection (PT) is another quick and cost effective method. It is used to detect surface defects in non porous materials (metals, rubber, plastic, ceramic, glass, and some organic). This method most commonly finds: fatigue cracks, grinding cracks, overload and impact fractures, and weld discontinuities.
Radiographic Testing (RT)
X-Ray technology can be performed on site in our mobile dark rooms. It can be used on a wide range of materials and shows changes in thickness, corrosion, voids, cracks, and material density both on the surface and below the surface.
