Quality Controls and Non Destructive Tests (NDT)
The quality control performed on our equipment is divided into three phases:
- Inspection of incoming raw materials
- Controls during manufacturing
- Final inspections.
In all of them a careful visual inspection and an exhaustive dimensional control are carried out.
Final assessment of all our pressure vessel always includes a test for the pressure containment aspect, which normally take the form of a hydrostatic pressure test at a pressure at least equal, where appropriate, to the value laid down in the Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU. Leak tests with pressurized air are always included too.
During manufacturing, other inspections are usually performed:
- Radiographic examination of welds (using both X-ray and radioactive isotopes)
- Liquid penetrant
- Ultrasonic examination
- Magnetic particles

These are outsourced to recognised third-party organizations.
Furthermore, final inspections include checks of finishing, cleaning, painting if applicable, packaging and preparation for shipment.
