Aircraft and Aviation NDT Services

Aircraft and aviation Ndt Services

ARA provides a variety of nondestructive testing services to evaluate aircraft and detect component flaws. Non-destructive testing ensures negligible interference and minimal disturbance of aircrafts under investigation.

radiography

Using x-rays to analyze materials and welds; used for examining subsurface structures

eddy current inspection

Detects surface and subsurface flaws by examining components for cracks, corrosion, conductivity, and temper condition

ultrasonic thickness testing

Detects flaws, determines geometric relationships, deep subsurface material penetration

magnetic particle inspection

Detects surface and near surface discontinuities as possible results of fatigue, stress, or corrosion

liquid penetrant testing

Locates minute surface flaws and inconsistencies

bond testing

Examines the integrity of composite components

optical prism

Analyzes deviation of light in windows/windshield to detect flaws

borescope testing

Used to inspect inaccessible locations such as pipes, tanks, pressure vessels for failures, blockages, and other irregularities

thermographic testing

Infrared viewing of aircraft components for heat and electrical patterning
