Technical Aspects of Surface Treatment and Aerospace Paint Processes

Advanced Training on Materials and Their Applications

Certification preparation in penetrant testing and Magnetic particle inspection

Penetrant Testing is a surface inspection method used to detect open-surface defects of small size (cracks, pits, fissures, etc.), regardless of their orientation, on non-porous metallic materials.

Magnetic Particle Inspection detects both surface and near-surface defects (up to 1–2 mm depth) in ferromagnetic materials (shrinkage cracks, inclusions,...).

Our training is fully compliant with COFREND-FrANDTB standards, allowing participants to obtain certification accordingly.

Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) Training

A training environment designed for success

Our training sessions take place in a purpose-built environment that promotes effective learning, combining both theory and hands-on practice.
