Specialized services maximum technology!
We renew our image, our brand, but above all our technology. We wanted to provide our clients with confidence, security and quality in each of our services, so we decided to EVOLVE. Now we are VILLALVA!
Phase Array Ultrasound
Phased Array Ultrasonics (PA) is basically an arrangement of multiple piezoelectric crustals ranging from 16 elements, 32 elements, 64 elements and 128 elements, which are controlled by a software which calculates focal laws making beams of light deviate.
Computerized Industrial Radiography
Computed Radiography (CR) technique consists of exposing an image of a component to be inspected either with X-Rays or Gamma Rays at a time calculated according to the thickness and distance placed on the component,
Guided Waves
The ultrasound method by means of guided waves helps us to detect internal, external and under the coating corrosion and to do so an inflatable collar is placed in which it contains modules with multiple probes which generate plate-type waves at frequencies that oscillate. from 20KHz to 100 KHz.
Robotized Ultrasound
With robotic ultrasound thickness measurement, the equipment performs wall thickness analysis through the path of a dual-type probe and with a frquency of 5Mhz on ferromagnetic components.
Penetrating Liquids
The Non-Destructive Testing is carried out to highlight surface defects on all materials (castings, welds, pipes, etc.). The method of penetrating liquid control is based on the visual examination of the surface after the application, in sequence, of a penetrating product and a detector. First, a preliminary cleaning is done on the surface of the material to be inspected manually or by mechanical means to remove paint, oxides, greases and oils among other contaminants that may affect inspection.
Penetrating Liquids
Use a solvent to remove the remaining residues from the previous cleaning, leaving the surface suitable for the next step, applying a colored penetrating oil on the area of interest and leaving it a certain time according to the temperature and type of material so that it can enter discontinuities through capillary
Magnetic particles
Magnetic particle Inspection (MPI) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) process for detecting surface and shallow subsurface discontinuities in ferromagnetic materials such as iron, nickel, cobalt, and some of their alloys. First, the surface of the ferromagnetic components to be inspected is conditioned in such a way that it is suitable for inspection.
Magnetic particles
Then the lighting conditions are verified according to the values established in the reference standards depending on whether they are visible or fluorescent. In the next step, the lifting power is verified with a steel bar with a certain weight based on the type of current that was selected for the inspection, a contrasting paint film is applied that does not exceed its average measurement values at 20 microns thick if required on the area to be inspected.
Digital Radiography
The Industrial Radiography method in its Digital technique acquires the images using gamma rays or X-rays together with a rigid flat panel with measures of 16 x 16 inches in length which has an impact resistant case for jobs that are in difficult
Digital Radiography
conditions, it is connected to the voltage supply unit which has voltage, temperature and communication indicators, in turn, this unit is linked to the computer unit where we will have the equipment software in which the data of the component to be inspected (diameter, thickness, isometric and material specification)
Leak Test
The Leak Test method in its Bubble Emission technique is performed on clean surfaces, with adequate light intensity and temperature according to the specifications of the leak detection solution, it is started by applying a leak detection solution
In Situ Metallographic Replicas
Element provides a comprehensive range of in-situ replication metallography and replica testing services to help you determine the strength, quality and remaining lifetime of your materials, avoid disastrous failures, and ensure safe and productive operations.
In Situ Metallographic Replicas
Replication Metallography is a non-destructive sampling procedure which records and preserves the topography of a metallographic specimen as a negative relief on a plastic film. The microstructural replica can be examined using a light microscope or Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) for subsequent analysis.
Conventional Industrial Ultrasound
The Industrial Ultrasound method is one of the most common and basic volumetric tests in the industry due to the cost of service compared to the other variants of this ultrasonic method.
Eddy Currents
With the Eddy Current method, discontinuities that are superficially or close to the surface of components that are electrically conductive are detected
Industrial Radiography
The Industrial Radiography method is one of the most common and basic volumetric tests in the industrial market due to regulatory considerations, it begins by gathering information on the component to be inspected (thickness, material specification, exterior and interior diameter and isometric)
Industrial Radiography
Since some of them are variables for the determination of the exposure time, selection of radiographic film, selection of intensifying screen size, selection of image quality indicator and creation of the identification template with lead numbers, the next step is the delimitation, signaling and warning to the surrounding personnel of the area
