Development and qualification of equipment

Development and qualification of specific NDT equipment: Using our expertise to work for you

The operations and development teams at Intercontrôle can call on their exceptional experience and expertise that is continuously maintained. They make Intercontrôle a valued partner capable of adapting to all inspection codes in force worldwide (RSE-M, ASME, KTA) and of offering a rapid response to the demands of its customers in France and the world over.

The demands for longer reactor lifespans and shorter and less expensive interventions are also a permanent incentive to develop new inspection equipment.

Our highly varied developments demonstrate our capacity to innovate.

Some of our developments:

The in-service inspection machine (MIS) used to inspect the reactor pressure vessel of the Flamanville 3 EPR
The EXACT inspection chain that uses eddy current testing to inspect steam generator tubes
Ultrasonic inspection of the reactor vessel inner radius nozzles
Ultrasonic and televisual inspection of reactor vessel bottom-mounted instrumentation (BMI)
Phased-array ultrasonic robotic inspection systems for primary circuit piping
Remote control system for the inspection of a primary circuit nozzle with a flexible phased array ultrasonic transducer
Data processing software
