X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) Test

We have expanded our range of Non-Destructive Testing methods by adding “X-Ray Fluorescence” (XRF), an analytical technique used to determine the elemental composition of materials. A form of Positive Material Identification (PMI), it is a fast and non-destructive method for verifying the chemical composition of metals and alloys.

XRF is a portable and cost-effective method for confirming general material types. While not as thorough as other chemical analysis methods, XRF is an excellent on-site alternative to be able to confirm the alloy or type of materials present in samples, for testing finished components or welded joints in alloys, re-certifying materials and evaluating materials that cannot be destructed or transported to our laboratories.
