Automated Non-Destructive Testing

You need a partner who understands how to automate your non-destructive testing—not someone in their garage and not someone so big that the engineers are hidden behind management and salespeople. Invent Automation is an expert in all thing’s automation and non-destructive testing. Harmonic crack detection at high speed to eddy current testing in transfer lines, we live and breathe this world every day.

You need engineers and inventors knowledgeable in:

1. A wide variety of common and not so common NDT abilities
2. Knowing which NDT processes lend themselves to automation and which don’t 
3. Understanding how to achieve high accuracy and repeatability in an automated system
4. A deep skillset in material handling techniques to get your parts in and out of the system quickly
5. Strong machine design and automation skills with the electrical, mechanical and controls disciplines under one roof

Common pitfalls of automated non-destructive testing equipment that we ensure you don’t fall into:

1. Not knowing which technologies lend themselves to automation and their alternatives
2. Not being aware of the latest trends and technology in NDT equipment
3. Not considering the data logging aspects of the project

We’ve been to hundreds of plants and seen thousands of projects. We’ve rescued automated NDT projects before, learned from others' mistakes, made some of our own, and know what it takes to make automated NDT equipment projects.

Our automated metrology and test stand process starts with a phone call and a visit where we listen, throw around crazy ideas, and ask “what if” together. It’s a lot of fun compared to the daily grind. But we don’t prescribe before diagnosing. We seek to understand the drivers and business results that warrant the investment in a custom system. You want a bespoke custom metrology or test stand solution tailored to your needs, and it must deliver business results on time so you can make a return on your investment. We know it’s not about deploying a particular technology or brand; it’s all about achieving your business goal.

Your crazy idea might work. We exist to Invent Automation. Call, email, or chat with us here and talk to an inventor who gets it, so your automated metrology and test stand solution can get built and you can get that win.
