Overview

Corrosion Mapping is a specialized application of ultrasonic testing that creates detailed wall thickness maps of equipment and piping to assess the extent and severity of corrosion damage. Using encoded scanning systems, corrosion mapping produces color-coded C-scan images that clearly show areas of wall loss, enabling accurate remaining life calculations and maintenance planning.

In Chile, Corrosion Mapping is essential for maintaining safety and reliability across critical industries including Mining, Power Generation, Manufacturing, Construction. Our certified NDT inspectors have extensive experience with Corrosion Mapping applications specific to Chile's unique industrial landscape and regulatory environment.
