Our technology

Inspection technology, from first idea to production line

We are a multi-disciplined engineering company. Our teams take novel, often disruptive ideas from proof of concept through prototype to manufacture.

01 / Mixed Light

Daylight fluorescent inspection

Real-time image overlay and fully automated detection for fluorescent penetrant (FLPI) and magnetic particle (FMPI) inspection, even with background light up to 100,000 lux.

03 / iCON™

Corrosion under insulation, detected 24/7

A distributed network of miniaturised EIS sensors monitors insulated pipework around the clock and pinpoints corrosion, even on bends and joints.

04 / CuSafeguard

Viricidal copper nanotechnology

A process that permanently bonds copper nanoparticles into cotton and paper fibres, making everyday materials inherently viricidal.

Mixed Light inspection software in dual view: fluorescent indications next to the live visual image

Featured system

ML 3000™: bringing fluorescent inspection into the light

Fluorescent inspection normally needs a darkened booth. The ML 3000 detects fluorescent indications in normal working light, overlays them on a live image and flags defects automatically.

  • Works with background light up to 100,000 lux
  • Automatic crack detection, with a size filter to show only large defects
  • NDT, overlay, dual and visual viewing modes
  • For fluorescent penetrant and magnetic particle inspection, and medical imaging
