CINDE Member Webinar Series - The Art of Realistic Flawed Specimens - beyond notches and side drilled holes | |||||||||||||
Tuesday, November 17 2020 at 12:00pm CINDE Member Webinar Series We welcome all members and non-members to participate in our new series of webinars designed to provide you with knowledge in a variety of areas related to NDT. Date: November 17, 2020 Time: 12:00pm EST Topic: The Art of Realistic Flawed Specimens – beyond notches and side drilled holes Presenter: Ricky Morgan (FlawTech) Abstract: The concept of making flawed specimens seems simple at first thought. Anyone can make a bad weld or product. This is true in concept but making a flawed specimen with accurate dimensions with no distractors other than the intended flaws to gauge an NDT Technicians’ or the CWIs’ performance or ability to properly locate, size and dispatch said specimen to a specific code, procedure or industry standard is another thing all together. For many years I have heard from inspectors how they fear taking practical exams and how hard it is to get practical experience. In this day and age, we are still experiencing only 50% passing rate on some of the standardized Industry Performance Demonstration Exams. Why is that? I believe it is most likely linked to lack of adequate preparation. Just because you do it day in and day out doesn’t mean you don’t need a refresher prior to taking an exam. I will discuss the advantages of having and using realistic flawed specimens to both train on and test with for a variety of industry sectors.

Don Andrews Manager, Member Services d.andrews@cinde.ca CINDE Member Webinar Series - Robotic NDT Solutions Tuesday, November 3 2020 at 11:00am EST CINDE Member Webinar Series We welcome all members and non-members to participate in our new series of webinars designed to provide you with knowledge in a variety of areas related to NDT. Date: November 3, 2020 Time: 11:00am EST Topic: Robotic NDT Solutions Presenter: Christophe Bordeleau, Product Manager, Inuktun Product Line Abstract: This presentation highlights how inspection robotics are being used for a range of non-destructive testing (NDT) operations. Eddyfi Technologies presents its remotely operated crawler systems built on an IM3™, or Inuktun Multi-Mission Modular, platform that enables the integration of complementary NDT modalities for assessments in areas where humans can’t or shouldn’t directly access. The synergistic product offering by Eddyfi Technologies leverages the most advanced inspection technologies with robust robotic platforms to safeguard humans and the environment, also helping provide cost and production efficiencies to asset owners and operators across a range of industries. We take a closer look at the Inuktun MaggHD™, a miniature magnetic crawler used for remote visual inspection (RVI) in lieu of hazardous confined space entry (CSE) or working at heights. Mini but mighty, this inspection crawler reduces or eliminates the need for scaffolding and/or rope access for examination of otherwise unreachable areas of assets. We share a real-world example of the MaggHD for tank and vessel inspection with a live product demonstration immediately after. Understanding the growing need to collect more data to empower more informed maintenance decisions, we present a range of integrated technologies for complete assessments with the MaggHD. This includes Tangential Eddy Current Array (TECA™), Pulsed Eddy Current (PEC), and Alternating Current Field Measurement (ACFM®), and Ultrasonic Testing (UT). We break down the advantages and applications with examples for each technique. Beyond IM3™ technology, we share our Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) and Total Focusing Method (TFM) robotic scanner solutions. By the end of this webinar, featuring a live Q&A session with Eddyfi Technologies own NDT expert, you should have a clear understanding of the benefits offered by robotic deployment of NDT sensors, probes and tooling for safer and more efficient inspections.

NDT in Canada 2020 Conference Tuesday, May 5 2020 to Thursday, May 7 2020 The Canadian Institute for Non-destructive Evaluation (CINDE) is pleased to announce the NDT in Canada 2020 Conference, held at Caesars Windsor May 5-7, 2020. The theme for this conference is Canada's NDT Vision - Inspection Excellence. This conference brings a number of opportunities to discuss: the end of a decade of amazing NDT innovation, the exciting advancements that NDT professionals have made in NDT techniques and tools, as well as the direction of the industry and new technologies.
We invite NDT professionals from across the world to join in our world-class conference and enjoy the high quality programming that CINDE is known for! View more details on www.cinde.ca/conference. Location: Caesars Windsor, Windsor ON
2020 IPEIA Conference Monday, February 24 2020 to Friday, February 28 2020 Building on the successes of preceding IPEIA Conferences, this year’s event will once again provide a platform to satisfy all attendees. Our industry is constantly changing and in order for us to continue keeping up with the latest trends and technologies we have rolled out changes to our format to improve the IPEIA experience for our members.
The 2019 conference had over 850 delegate registrations and a total of 85 exhibitor booths, both records for IPEIA. Growth of this magnitude proves that this conference has become one of the must attend events in the pressure equipment industry. Location: Banff, AB

Ontario Chapter Technical Presentation: Understanding Why it Cracked: On-Site, NDT Crack Identification | ||||
Thursday, April 16 2020 at 6:30pm - 9:00pm Understanding Why it Cracked On-Site, NDT Crack Identification Understanding the nature of failure or cracking can help direct efforts in preventing repeat failures. When broken parts can be removed, lab-based failure analysis can be used to determine the details of part failure. Yet in many cases, such as when cracks are found on pressure vessels, destructive testing is not a viable option. Field replications and metallography allows for on-site, non-destructive identification of the cracking mode. This talk will summarize the uses of both failure analysis and on-site evaluation in support of inspection efforts. Speaker: Shane Turcott (Steel Image) Biography - Shane Turcott Shane Turcott, P.Eng has performed over 2500 failure analyzes and metallurgical projects. He has worked for various companies including Dofasco, Bodycote and Liburdi Turbine Services. In 2009 he founded Steel Image, an engineering company specializing in failure analysis and on-site material evaluations. Considered an expert in these fields, he has worked around the world supporting refining, mining, energy and manufacturing. He is the past Ontario Chair of the American Society of Materials, somewhat funny, has been decorated by McMaster University and once completed a 100 mile running race. Room: Provided 2 days prior to event via email. Non-Members: $10 Location: Mohawk College (Fennell Campus); 135 Fennell Avenue West; Hamilton, ON
