Test/ Service Name  Equipment Available  Remarks 
 1 NDT Flaw Detection (Ultrasound)
Ultrasonic Flaw Detector  Using Frequency shift
 2 NDT (Ultrasound) Characterization of biomedical and engineering materials High Voltage Pulser/receiver  Wide range of transducers covering frequencies from 24kHz to 20 MHz
We are capable of measuring bulk and shear modulus for biological samples & engineering solid & porous materials. We also can characterize the properties of jells, foams and brittle structure. Measurements are done noninvasively with sample sizes, shapes.
 3 NDT Multi-layer Thickness measurements Ultrasonic thickness gauge   We can measures layer thickness down to mm scales, including paintings coatings etc.
 4 Noise assessment Digital Noise Meter Nor140 Sound Analyzer  Noise source identification with markers and sound recording
Environmental noise assessment   
Sound power 
Noise Nuisance Recorder
 5 Noise prediction and Mapping KadnA Noise mapping Software  Calculation, presentation, assessment and prediction of environmental noise.
