Pro-Inspect now has the capabilities to qualify operators of MFL scanning equipment. This qualification is accomplished thru practical examination. The practical exam consists of three (3) parts. Part one includes MFL scanning over a .250 thick c.s. plate containing known underside defects. During the second phase, scanning is performed over a .065 coating, and then the coating is removed. Finally, the bare plate is scanned and ultrasonic proveup is performed to prove exact locations of defects. This qualification test is provided at our location. The practical portion of the examination provides confidence to the clients and to the operator of this equipment. Everyone knows the equipment and operator can meet expectations required during the inspection process. Contact Lee Sweeten or Steve Wells at Pro-Inspect for more detailed information. | |||||||||||
