QC Laboratories, Inc., a leading nondestructive testing and inspection services company, has announced that it has been awarded Nadcap certification for computed radiography (AC7114/10S) by the Performance Review Institute (PRI).
The Nadcap certification is a highly respected accreditation that recognizes companies that demonstrate exceptional quality and performance in the aerospace industry. QC Laboratories, Inc. has met the rigorous requirements of the Nadcap audit for computed radiography, which includes stringent technical and quality standards, as well as an assessment of the company's personnel, facilities, and processes.
"We are thrilled to have achieved this certification, which reflects our unwavering commitment to providing the highest quality nondestructive testing and inspection services to our customers," said Jose Crespo, General Manager of QC Laboratories, Inc. "With the addition of Nadcap certification for Computed Radiography per ASTM E2033, combined with our powerful 450kV x-ray system, we are better equipped to serve our Nadcap subscriber customers in aerospace & defense, space, and beyond."
Computed radiography is a nondestructive testing method that uses digital imaging technology to produce high-quality images of internal structures and components. This technology enables the detection of defects and discontinuities in materials, such as cracks, porosity, and inclusions, without damaging them.
QC Laboratories, Inc. has had remarkable success in identifying defects in metal additive manufacturing parts using computed radiography. The company has been able to detect defects as small as 25 microns, which is crucial for ensuring the quality and reliability of complex metal parts made from exotic and refractory metals like those used in aircraft and rocket engine components, where high strength and thermodynamics are required.
With the new Nadcap certification for computed radiography (AC7114/10S), QC Laboratories, Inc. is now able to offer computed radiography services that meet the rigorous quality and technical standards of the aerospace industry. This certification further strengthens the company's position as a trusted provider of nondestructive testing and inspection services to customers in a wide range of industries.
