Helping SMR developers and their global supply chains develop, validate and qualify NDT inspection capability before deployment.
SMR programs are moving from design and licensing towards component manufacture, construction and qualification. Factory manufacturing and modular construction create a need for reliable, repeatable inspection capability to develop, validate and qualify NDT inspection capability before deployment.
Engineered flawed specimens provide physical evidence against which procedures, equipment and personnel can be demonstrated before production or deployment.
Support can follow the organizations responsible for component manufacture, welding, inspection and qualification across the global supply chain.
Design and development
Feasibility studies and early inspection technique development
