Positive Material Identification (PMI) Inspection

Service Details

Positive Material Identification (PMI) Service – Fast & Accurate Alloy Verification for Critical Applications. Our Positive Material Identification (PMI) Service delivers rapid and non-destructive verification of metal alloys to ensure material compliance, reliability, and safety across all major industrial sectors. Using advanced handheld XRF (X-ray Fluorescence) and OES (Optical Emission Spectroscopy) technologies, we accurately determine the elemental composition of metals on-site or at our laboratory, ensuring immediate, precise, and traceable results. PMI plays a vital role in confirming material grades, preventing mix-ups, and meeting stringent industry standards such as ASTM, ASME, API, and ISO—making it indispensable in high-risk environments including oil & gas, power plants, aerospace, heavy engineering, fabrication, and process industries. Key Features On-site and laboratory-based PMI testing services for maximum flexibility Instant detection of major alloying elements including Fe, Cr, Ni, Mo, Mn, Co, Cu, Ti, and more Handheld XRF and mobile OES analyzers suitable for field, shop-floor, and shutdown environments Identification of a wide range of materials, including stainless steels, carbon steels, duplex steels, nickel alloys, copper alloys, and aluminum alloys Fully non-destructive testing with immediate, reliable results Certified inspection reports with complete traceability and material records Compliance with global standards such as ASTM E1476, API 578, ASME Section II, and ISO material specifications Applications Incoming material inspection at warehouses and fabrication units Weld and piping material verification during construction and shutdowns Testing of pressure vessels, valves, flanges, fittings, and critical components QA/QC activities in fabrication, installation, and maintenance projects Failure investigation and root-cause analysis Material traceability and documentation for audits and certifications Why Choose Our PMI Services?
