EMAG – Electromagnetic Inspection

MRT – Magnetic Resonance Testing

MI – Magneto-inductive Rope testing

Electromagnetic wire rope inspection is an industry standard for in-service inspection of ropes. KTL Marine Services uses the state of the art EMAG rope testing equipment to detect any abnormalities and or degradation occurred beneath the outer surface of the rope, which is not detectable by visual inspection.

We test moving and stationary cables and wire ropes:

Hoisting cables
Crane cables
Cableway and cable car cables
Bridge wire ropes
Stay and anchoring wire ropes
Offshore wire rope

Loss of metallic cross-sectional area (LMA)

Quantitative Characterization: external and internal corrosion including corrosion pitting, wear, broken wires, broken cores, various changes of rope structure.

Wire Rope Roughness (WRR)

Quantitative Characterization: external and internal corrosion including corrosion pitting, inter-strand nicking, broken wires (single or in clusters)
