SGS Holds Thriving Guided Wave Seminars in Argentina and Chile
SGS recently organized two seminars on Guided Wave, an advanced Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) method. Held in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on November 9th, 2010 and in Santiago, Chile, on November 11th, 2010, the seminars were designed to provide theoretical and practical information on this Long Range Ultrasonic Testing technique.
(firmenpresse) - Guided Wave, also known as Long Range Ultrasonic Testing, is widely recognized as the most effective testing method for the detection of both corrosion and erosion on piping systems. In order to meet the growing need for information on Guided Wave technology, SGS organized two one-day seminars on this advanced Non-Destructive Testing method (http://www.sgs.com/ultrasonic-testing?serviceId=10134191&lobId=5550) on November 9th, 2010 in Buenos Aires, Argentina and on November 11th, 2010 in Santiago, Chile.
The Guided Wave (http://www.sgs.com/guided-wave-inspection-long-range-ultrasonic-testing?serviceId=10134130&lobId=5550) seminars were conducted by Mr. Norbert Trimborn, NDT specialist and Head of the Competence Center for Special NDT Examinations in the Netherlands, and Mr. Alessandro Demma from Guided Ultrasonics Limited. Aimed at SGS customers and employees, the seminars proved to be a great success.
The seminars focused on the significant advantages of this relatively new inspection technology above any other spot measurement approach. Guided Wave technology provides 100% coverage of the volume of the piping inspected for metal loss features such as corrosion and erosion as well as precise location of affected areas. Moreover, seminar attendees had a unique chance to learn about the application range, opportunities, limitations and equipment of Guided Wave inspection. This Non-Destructive Testing method (http://www.sgs.com/non-destructive-testing-services?catId=10134077&lobId=5550&type=service) can be used without scaffolding, on pipes in operation, insulated pipes and even buried pipes.
Due to the great success, SGS is planning further seminars on Non-Destructive Testing methods (http://www.sgs.com/non-destructive_testing?serviceId=10061644&lobId=5550) in Argentina and Chile in the near future.
