Consulting & Materials Testing

Consulting:
The expertise of ATC engineers reflects many years of experience dealing with problems related to boiler metallurgy and materials performance, welding, boiler design and operation, and high temperature corrosion and wastage in boilers. ATC can provide the resources to evaluate a broad spectrum of boiler-related problems, identifying the cause of the problem and proposing and, in many cases, implementing the solution to that problem. Representatives of ATC currently sit on critical technical committees of the ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code, so that ATC is involved in decisions that directly affect operators of pressure vessels throughout the world.

Materials Testing:
To effectively address the broad range of materials problems that are encountered by its clients in the Pulp and Paper and Utility Industries, ATC offers the services of a well-equipped metallurgical laboratory. Through the appropriate laboratory testing, ATC engineers can provide in-depth analysis of on-line erosion amid corrosion problems, so that the optimum protective strategy for a particular problem can be devised. Included in the testing services that can be obtained through ATC are failure analysis, materials characterization, weld procedure qualification testing, and component condition assessment.
