WELCOME TO: Defect Detection Technologies
The continuous development of new materials and their applications in a wide range of industries puts more pressure on non-destructive testing companies to look for improvements to existing technologies as well as to find new ones. Recent developments in carbon nano-tubes, composites, ceramics, new steel alloys and polymers, together with their application to the aerospace, medical, defence, automotive and oil related industries provide a wide range of challenges for NDT.
DDTech’s Aim
DDTech‘s aim is to introduce some of the latest techniques to the UK NDT market. These technologies include:
| Infrared Thermography from Thermosensorik Gmbh – a technology which has been used since 1940’s, and now the latest developments in cameras, software and computing power has given the technology a quantum leap in the last few years. Find out more >> |
3D X-ray computed Tomography from Xradia Inc. – with imaging technology developed for use on synchrotron sources producing nano-meter resolutions for 3d imaging, now available in laboratory systems. Find out more >> |
Ultraviolet imaging for MPI & DPI from ACE UV – the latest high power ultraviolet light from a single led in a torch. Portable power. Find out more >> |
