Overview

In-Field Materials Testing and characterisation is an important part of any QA/QC process and ARI can support projects and routine maintenance with Materials Testing Services.

Positive Material Identification (PMI)

ARI utilises Handheld X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) Technology to perform rapid on-site PMI. Why would you need to use PMI?

  1. If you’re not sure what base material you are about to weld
  2. Confirm material received aligns with supplied mill certificates
  3. Ensure piping/valve changeouts are the same material as intended
  4. Assist with reverse engineering decisions
  5. Confirmation of welding consumables used

Ferrite Testing

 

 

Ferrite testing is a technique used to measure the ferrite content in austenitic stainless steel and duplex stainless steel. The ferrite content is measured to better understand an austenitic or duplex stainless steel’s susceptibility to corrosion, susceptibility to solidification cracking and other types of material failure.

Portable Hardness Testing

 

The Hardness of a material is a critical property and when in-situ or in-field testing is required, we can deploy testing professionals with the most appropriate tools to measure and record the hardness values. Hardness values can be tested in Leeb, Vickers, Rockwell or UCI.
