Consultancy

Tieval engineers have worked to some of the most exacting inspection requirements and can draw on unrivalled experience to offer consultancy in the design of systems and processes for a large range of applications. We also offer training and consultancy services in all areas of automated ultrasonic inspection and can work to assist customers in the design of specialist solutions for any requirement. Some examples of our work include:

Composite Inspection - Tieval engineers have been involved in the development of numerous composite inspection processes and systems.
Metallic Inspection - Tieval engineers have decades of experience designing high performance metallic inspection solutions.
GLARE Inspection - Tieval engineers worked with the Technical University of Delft to develop inspection processes and systems for GLARE (Glass Re-Enforced Aluminium), the material used in the manufacture of the Airbus 380 fuselage.
Fuel Rod Inspection - Tieval engineers developed a process for the inspection of nuclear fuel rods for the United Kingdom nuclear industry. The company created automated systems and processes to locate gas pores as small as 0.1mm diameter in welded fuel rods, whilst also quantifying all aspects of weld penetration.
Fan Blade Inspection - Tieval engineers designed the system and processes for the in-service inspection of wide-chord fan blades.
Aero-Engine Disc Inspection - Tieval engineers have developed advanced systems for the inspection of aero-engine discs that allow manual, semi-automatic and fully automated inspection of discs to most specifications. This has been replicated for shaft and bar inspection.
