At Waukesha Foundry, quality assurance goes far beyond what meets the eye. Some of the most critical features of a casting are hidden deep within, and that’s where Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) comes in.
NDT is a powerful set of inspection methods that allow us to evaluate castings for internal soundness without damaging the part. Using tools like radiographic inspection, digital radiography, magnetic particle inspection, liquid penetrant inspection, and hydrostatic testing, we can detect even the smallest internal quality detail.
Why in-house NDT matters
Having these capabilities right here in our facility and performed by our highly trained and certified staff, offers significant advantages to our customers:
- Lead time savings- There are no delays from shipping castings to outside labs. Testing happens on-site and on schedule.
- Cost efficiency- It eliminates the added expense of third-party testing.
- Accuracy and reliability- Our team knows the castings inside and out, ensuring testing is precise and consistent.
- Confidence- Customers can move forward knowing their parts meet the highest quality standards for critical applications.
In industries where safety and performance are non-negotiable, trusting what you cannot see is essential. By investing in robust, in-house NDT, Waukesha Foundry helps customers save time, reduce costs, and gain confidence in every casting delivered.
