Reference standards are used in all non-destructive examination (NDE) methods. They are created from various alloys, both common and exotic, and come in various forms of alloys, such as pipe alloys and plate alloys. Top Notch EDM Services can create a multitude of reference blocks in desired alloys, forms, and machined finishes. We offer nickel plating, anodized aluminum, and sand blasting.
We also provide recertification of test blocks. Over time, block conditions can cause wear and abuse to the test block, leading to blocks that exhibit dimensional changes or no longer meet the certification specifications.
Products:
- IIW Type I and Type II blocks
- Flat-bottom hole (FBH) standard blocks
- ASME basic blocks
- PAUT testing and calibration blocks
- DSC/DC blocks
- Step-thickness blocks
- Rompas blocks
- Navship blocks
Top Notch EDM Services offers superior calibration blocks for Automated Ultrasonic Testing (AUT). We custom design our blocks to fit any AUT system or scanner our clients require. Our blocks can be engineered with strategically placed reflectors to accommodate any scanner configuration or set-up, as well as runoff tabs for ease of use by scanner technicians. Our in-house team of NDT Level III experts can work with clients to ensure they receive the optimal blocks for all their AUT needs.
