Positive Material Identification (PMI) serves as a critical non-destructive testing (NDT) method utilized to ensure material compliance with stipulated standards and specifications. Its primary function involves verifying the chemical composition of metallic components, validating essential element proportions crucial for qualities like corrosion resistance. Widely applied across industries, PMI plays a pivotal role in ensuring quality control and safety compliance, forming an integral part of both production processes and asset integrity management strategies.
The core offerings in Positive Material Identification encompass equipment and services. Equipment pertains to the tools utilized for analyzing and confirming material grade and alloy composition, essential for quality assurance and safety protocols. These PMI tools are instrumental in examining the component makeup of ores, soils, liquids, and powders. Variants of PMI tools include portable and benchtop analyzers leveraging X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) and Optical Emission Spectrometry (OES) techniques. The diverse spectrum of industries employing PMI comprises oil and gas, metals and heavy machinery, automotive, scrap recycling, chemicals, power generation, and pharmaceuticals.
