INSPECTION

Composite NDT Inspection & Consulting Services

CICNDT’s Composite Non-destructive Testing Services (NDT) help protect the safety and longevity of your composite materials, aerospace structures, and wind turbine blades. We utilize cutting-edge methods from Photothermal Tomography and Laser Shearography to PAUT and Digital Image Correlation (DIC) for precise flaw detection without damaging your assets. We also offer comprehensive visual inspections and CT scanning for a holistic assessment. Rely on CICNDT industry expertise for informed decisions about your critical assets.

Wind

Blade inspection from factory floor to tower: spar cap and shear web bond lines, trailing edge bonds, leading-edge erosion and lightning damage. We apply low-frequency UT, phased array, shearography and visual methods in the plant or in the field.

Aerospace

Inspection of CFRP skins, honeycomb control surfaces, bonded joints and thermoplastic structures using phased array and laser UT, shearography, photothermal tomography, thermography and CT, with results documented to your specification.

Auto/Marine

Composite hulls, decks, body panels and structural components inspected for delamination, disbonds, voids and impact damage, using fast, non-contact methods suited to production cycle times.
