Services
Ignite inspection has a pool of fully certified inspectors qualified to handle the NDT inspections. They are all trained and certified ASNT NDT Level II or Level III, and conduct the inspections as per the official international standards.
IGNITE INSPECTION offers various types of nondestructive inspections services, inspection surveillance, and many more quality services. Whether it is in fabrication, pipeline construction, manufacturing, pipeline maintenance, chemical or petrochemical plants, offshore and power plants our Non-Destructive Testing Services provide quality assurance and process safety. Ignite NDT has a nationwide track record with proven performance on new construction, in-service inspection and expansion projects as the total NDT Solution Provider. Ignite NDT covers conventional and advanced NDT services, provided by certified inspectors to international standards. Ignite NDT understands better than most that the excellence of any service commences with excellence and the implementation of detailed and successful inspection procedures, state of the art equipment and most of all our professional people.
These are the NDT methods that we currently provide to evaluate materials, components, and welds.

Third Party Surveillance
Outsourcing your welding process does not mean you sacrifice quality. With our vendor surveillance services, we will ensure your specifications and quality standards are upheld.
Weld Consultation
We can provide you with top to bottom welding consultation to ensure you follow industry standards and codes. If you are a small to medium size business, let us do the heavy lifting for you.
Safety
Our Safety
IGNITE NDT is devoted to developing a safer environment for society. Our safety performances are built with standards and industry requirements. Safety is a priority that we maintain in order to further customer satisfaction, and confidence. We are committed to continuous education, substantial training, and skilled performance in our quality control and safety protocol.
Radiographic Testing
Radiographic Testing, one of our core areas of expertise, calls for using x-rays or gamma radiography to perform full volumetric inspection to validate the soundness of welds and other components. Radiography is one of the oldest and most widely used non-destructive testing methods.
In most cases, radiographic testing is used for the evaluations of welds on pipelines, pressure vessels, piping, storage containers, and structures. IGNITE NDT has qualified radiographers that interpret radiographs to applicable codes and standards such as API, ASME, and AWS while complying with required customer specifications.
IGNITE NDT regularly provides high-production weld inspection services on major pipeline construction projects using Conventional Film Radiography.
Radiography is performed in accordance with applicable NRC, agreement states, or jurisdictional requirements. Highly safety precautions are used by our very experienced technicians to keep everyone safe.
Magnetic Testing (MT)
Magnetic particle testing (MT) is used to locate surface and slight subsurface discontinuities or defects in ferromagnetic materials. Such flaws present in a magnetized part will cause a magnetic field (i.e. flux) to leave the part. If magnetic particles are applied to this surface, they will be held in place by the flux leakage to give a visual indication. IGNITE NDT provides the following services with this technique:
Yokes
Magnetic Particles
Ultrasonic Testing (UT)
Ultrasonic testing (UT) is a non-destructive inspection method that uses high frequency sound waves (ultrasound) that are above the range of human hearing, to measure geometric and physical properties in materials. One of the primary benefits of UT is that it is considered to be a truly volumetric test. UT is capable of determining not only the length and location of a flaw, but it will also provide information as to the type of flaw found. IGNITE NDT provides the following services with this technique.
Conventional UT
Penetrant Testing (PT)
Liquid penetrant inspection (PT) reveals surface flaws by the "bleed-out" of a penetrating medium against a contrasting background. This is done by applying penetrant to the pre-cleaned surface and flaw of the item being inspected.
The penetrant liquid will be drawn into any surface opening by capillary action. Following removal of excess penetrant an application of a developer reverses the capillary action and draws penetrant from the flaw. The resultant indications reveal the presence of the flaw so that it can be visually inspected and evaluated. IGNITE NDT provides the following services with this technique.
Visual Inspection (VT)
Visual inspection (VT) relies upon the detection of surface imperfections using the eye. Normally applied without the use of any additional equipment, VT can be improved by using aids such as a magnifying glass to improve its effectiveness and scope. IGNITE NDT provides the following services with this technique:
Hardness Testing (HBT)
Hardness Test – is typically performed by pressing a specifically dimensioned loaded object (indenter) into a flat surface of the material you are testing. The hardness is determined by measuring the depth of the indenter penetration or by measuring the size of the impression left by the indenter.
