Non-destructive Testing Services

Since our founding in 1967, Applied Technical Services (ATS) has become one of the leading NDT companies in North America.   Our certified staff of non-destructive testing professionals provide quality ndt inspections for many industries throughout the US and abroad. Because ATS is one of the larger non-destructive testing companies we have the capability to serve your need whether it is a small ndt project sent to the lab or an overseas outage needing many experienced technicians on-site. 

Our highly trained technicians are certified in IAW SNT-TC-1A, NAS 410 & CP189.  Some of our most common NDT services include liquid penetrant testing (PT), magnetic particle testing (MT), eddy current testing (ET), ultrasonic testing (UT), radiography testing (RT), and visual testing (VT).  We also provided more advanced methods like ultrasonic phased array testing and computed digital radiography testing.

When ATS arrives on a job site our technicians come prepared with the right equipment, the correct standards and everything needed to get the job done. In most cases you will have reports in-hand when we leave the job. ATS is committed to providing our customers with all the information they require as soon as possible. No waiting for results.
