Power Generation

Power generation assets operate continuously under high thermal, mechanical, and pressure loading — and their inspection programmes must be managed carefully to maintain safe, efficient operation while minimising unplanned downtime. Automated NDT inspection systems play a critical role in both manufacturing quality inspection of new components and periodic in-service inspection during planned maintenance outages. 

Altair Systems has a strong track record in the power generation sector across Southeast Asia — having delivered automated UT inspection systems to major coal, gas, and combined-cycle power facilities for boiler tube inspection, rotor component scanning, and heat exchanger inspection programmes. 

What We Inspect: Boiler tubes and tube panels; steam turbine rotors, disks, and shafts; heat exchanger tube bundles; pressure vessels and steam drums; pipework and header welds; generator rotor components; cooling tower and civil structure elements. 

Applicable Standards: ASME Section I and VIII; EN 12952 and 12953; TRD / AD standards (where applicable); EPRI inspection guidelines; utility operator and engineering insurance company inspection requirements. NDT Methods Used: UT | PAUT | TOFD | ECT (heat exchanger tubes) | MFL | RT/DR 

Recommended Systems: Automated Immersion UT Systems | Multi-axis Weld and Tube Inspection Systems | NDT Facility Setup for MRO Environments | Digital Twin for Plant Asset Integrity
