Training and Certification
What is NDT?
 

Non-Destructive Testing is a specialized branch of Engineering Science, which uses Ionizing Radiation, Ultrasonic Sound Waves, Magnetic Flux etc. to test the integrity of casting, forging welding etc. without impairing its usefulness.

Radiographic Testing, Ultrasonic Testing, Magnetic Particle Testing, Penetrant Testing, Visual Testing, Eddy Current Testing, Leak Testing, Infrared Thermography, Vibration Analysis, Neutron Radiography and Acoustic Emission are the recognized NDT methods.

 
To whom NDT?

Mechanical, Production and Automobile Engineers whoever is interested to develop their carrier as a QA / QC Engineer / Inspector require knowledge in relevant NDT methods. In addition to that NDT Technicians also require NDT qualification.

With the emerging new technologies and globalization in India, NDT has become an integral part of all design, construction, fabrication, installation and maintenance. A fresh Mechanical / Production / Automobile engineering graduate always needs a specialization before he gets his job assignment as specialist in a particular department.

Design Engineer requires Expertise in CAD
Production engineer requires Expertise in CNC
QA / QC Engineer requires Expertise in NDT

In recent years, Training and Certification in Non-Destructive Testing has produced best-specialized QA/QC engineers. Personnel, thus trained, have got opportunities to work in Gulf, Far East, South East and Western countries.

An S.S.L.C. / 10th passed candidate also has good job opportunity upon successful completion of NDT raining and certification as NDT technician which has good demand in gulf sector.

Moreover present global recession and financial crisis leads to loss of employment in all sectors is being discussed everywhere and require us to be highly competitive in our profession to keep our placement.  Accordingly we need to boost our qualifications, eligibility, skills etc. to find a suitable placement.  Non Destructive Testing (NDT - ASNT Level II) certification is such a course for Mechanical / Production / Design Engineers to enhance eligibility to find a placement as QA/QC Engineer.

 
Why NDT Qualification?
    A fresh Mechanical / Production / Automobile engineering graduate always needs a specialization before he gets his / her job assignment as specialist in a particular department, because he / she has to work in accordance with International Quality Standards such as:

  • American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME Standards)
  • American Petroleum Institute (API Standards)
  • American Welding Society (AWS Standards)
  • American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM Standards)
  • National Aerospace Standards (NAS Standards)
  • American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI Standards)
  • American National Standards Institute (ANSI Standards)
  • Military Standards (MIL STD)
  • European National Standard
  • American Society for Non Destructive Testing (ASNT)
    Hence engineers should be capable to follow these standards during design, construction, fabrication, installation and maintenance of projects. ASNT Level II is considered as basic qualification for NDT activities in the project.
 
Where NDT?
 

NDT is normally applied during construction, operations and maintenance of projects such as Oil and Natural Gas RIG, Gas Oil Separation Plant (GOSP), Refinery, Pipelines, Power Plant, Ship Building, Chemical Plants, Fertilizers, Automobile, Nuclear Plants, Aerospace, Steel Plants etc.

 
Training and Certification:
  • Accordingly, Metalscan Inspection Services extends our support for fresh Mechanical, Production and Automobile Engineers whoever is interested to develop their carrier as a QA / QC Engineer / Inspector. Being a service organization for Non-Destructive Testing in engineering industry we provide specialized training and certification of Non-Destructive Testing. We normally offer training on:

  • Radiographic Testing (RT)
  • Ultrasonic Testing (UT)
  • Magnetic Particle Testing (MT)
  • Penetrant Testing (PT)
  • Visual Testing (VT)
  • Eddy Current Testing (ET)
  • Leak Testing (LT)

  • We issue ASNT level I or Level II certificates upon successful completion of training which is recognized all over the world. We also provide training and certification on National Aerospace Standard (NAS410) and European National Standard (EN473).

  • Please note that we have highly qualified and well experienced faculties (more than 10 years in abroad) for training. Our faculties include ASNT Level III, Radiation safety lectures are handled by radiation safety officers (RSO/Site-in Charge) certified by BARC in India and KACST in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Introduction of welding and welding defects is taken care by Certified Welding Inspector qualified to AWS CWI from American Welding Society, Radiographic test film interpretation (RTFI) is taken care by Saudi Aramco certified RTFI with more than 10 years experience as RTFI.

  • At present we have training facilities in Kochin and Kozhikode. In addition to that we may arrange training anywhere in Kerala (Trivandrum, Pathanamthitta, Kannur, Kollam, Thrissur etc.) provided that there is a minimum of 10 candidates together.
