Inspection Overview

　　After years of operation under high-temperature, high-pressure, or corrosive environments, the internal microstructure of pipelines and process equipment may undergo physical degradation that cannot be detected through visual inspection.

　　Guided Wave Ltd. provides advanced metallographic replica analysis services utilizing in-situ non-destructive replica metallography technology without cutting pipelines. Without compromising structural integrity, the technology performs precision grinding, polishing, and chemical etching directly on the metal surface at the site. A specialized replica film is then used to capture the microstructure in detail, followed by high-magnification microscopic analysis for accurate metallographic evaluation. This analysis is conducted under the supervision of experienced experts with API 571 qualifications, providing authoritative scientific diagnosis for equipment life assessment.
