Omnia Integrity
About us
Omnia Integrity Ltd provides advanced Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) technologies for the inspection, assessment and monitoring of critical assets. The company specialises in three principal technologies: Acoustic Emission (AE), Alternating Current Field Measurement (ACFM) and Microwave NDT, providing solutions for metallic, composite and non-metallic structures across a wide range of industries.
Acoustic Emission is particularly suited to Structural Health Monitoring (SHM), allowing structures to be monitored continuously or periodically over extended periods. AE detects active damage mechanisms and can identify activity originating from hidden or difficult-to-access areas. Applications include bridges, buildings, pressure vessels, storage tanks, pipelines, composite structures, cranes and offshore assets. Specialist applications include long-term monitoring of ammonia and cryogenic storage tanks, as well as high-performance engineering and Formula 1 applications, where AE can monitor damage initiation and progression in highly loaded metallic and composite components.
ACFM is an electromagnetic technique for detecting and sizing surface-breaking cracks in conductive materials. It can inspect through protective coatings and operate both above and below water, making it particularly suitable for welds and critical structural components in industrial, marine and offshore environments.
Microwave NDT provides advanced inspection solutions for non-metallic and dielectric materials, including FRP and composite structures, enabling the detection and assessment of internal defects, damage and material variations.
Omnia Integrity also provides specialist training, technical consultancy and R&D. The company owns proprietary intellectual property and patent-pending technologies, reflecting its commitment to developing innovative NDT instrumentation, monitoring approaches and practical solutions for challenging asset-integrity applications.
Products & services
Acoustic Emission
Acoustic emission allows the detection of possible tank floor corrosion. It evaluates how serious the corrosion is and locates different sources, without the need to empty and clean the tank.
Lizard ACFM
The ACFM (Alternating Current Field Measurement ) method is an electromagnetic inspection method which enables to detect and size superficial and subsurface cracks quickly and reliably. Due to its characteristics and technical results, it is a perfect and superior replacement for manual and rudimentary techniques such as liquid penetrante or magnetic particles, since it has enormous advantages over these methods: It is not a contact technique, so it does not require surface preparation, previous cleaning or removal of paints or coatings; It does not require any type of supplies since it does not use couplings, liquids, or aerosols of any kind; It can be applied in conditions of reduced visibility since it is not necessary for the inspection; Detects and sizes indications, so it does not need to rely on complementary techniques such as angular UT, PA or Radiography, for dimensioning.
Drone Inspections in Confined Spaces
This new development in remote flight technology allows the inspection of confined spaces in a simple, effective way and with complete control of all possible variables during flight. Flying a drone in a confined space requires very particular technical specifications. Features such as stabilization, active surface tracking and lighting, among others, are essential to carry out a high-quality remote inspection..
Microwaves
Is a non-destructive testing technique developed specifically for the inspection of non-conductive (dielectric) materials, such as plastics, elastomers, ceramics, fiberglass, composite materials, or others. When Applied to inspect fiberglass tanks, the Micro wave technique identify internal defects with excellent accuracy, while only accessing the external face of the equipment. Image obtained by external inspection of a fiberglass container in which previous repairs on the equipment and new defects that need repair can be identified.
Training
Our level 3 experts in the different advanced methods provide practical and theoretical courses of the different methods used. The courses are compliant with international standards and we have an agreement in place with the European certification institutions to provide training and certification under ISO 9712. Our goal is to obtain a high level of personnel development in advanced non-destructive testing and integrity. We are aiming to provide the necessary technical support so that our clients can succeed.
