As a UKAS inspection body and BEIS appointed body as a recognised third-party organisation for PE(S)R, Ultramag offers welding procedure qualifications, welder qualification tests and the issuing of full documentation to ISO 15619, ISO 15614, ISO 9609, BS 4872, ASME IX and AWS D1.1. Under ISO 17025, Ultramag carries out fracture testing, bend testing, hardness testing and macro examination, ensuring a very quick turnaround on welded samples. Only UKAS-accredited laboratories are used for additional testing.
Personnel are qualified to PCN, SNT, NAS 410, EN 4179 and CSWIP. Ultramag Inspection Services has LR, BV, DNV and ABS approvals for ultrasonic thickness surveys. Client approvals are held for aerospace work. The major industries covered are structural steelwork, pipelines, nuclear, marine, aerospace, defence, wind turbines, bridges, material stockists, pressure pipework and vessels, automotive and general fabrications and machining.
Within the Welding Technology department, Ultramag's new building in Rushington allows for mechanical testing, NDT training and welder training, which can be followed by a welder qualification test. Currently, mechanical testing, material evaluation and the shipping department operate from here. Non-destructive testing, pressure testing and radiography for large components remain at Marchwood. Site testing is offered at any location, nationally and overseas.
Ultramag holds ISO 17020, ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 17025 accreditation.
