Early detection of potential corrosion and material fatigue problems is crucial for the safety and reliability of your aircraft. Your aircraft and its subsystems and components are exposed to high levels of stress during their operational life, which can weaken their systems. The resulting fatigue and corrosion can lead to disruption of successful missions and operations. Our MRO capabilities for non-destructive testing (NDT) and material laboratory services for aircraft and components enable these issues to be identified before they can impact the safety and availability of an aircraft.
We are committed to meeting your safety-critical inspection needs around the clock, regardless of the aircraft platform you use or the aerospace components and structures you install. Our team of maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) experts in non-destructive testing and materials offer a comprehensive range of testing procedures that meet the most stringent quality standards and can be performed both in-house and on-site anywhere in the world.
