Positive Material Identification (PMI)

Overview

POSITIVE MATERIAL IDENTIFICATION (PMI) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) method used to verify the chemical composition of metals and alloys. It ensures that materials conform to specifications, standards, and industry regulations, preventing the use of incorrect or substandard materials in critical applications. PMI is essential in industries such as oil & gas, power plants, petrochemical, aerospace, and manufacturing.

  • Benefits of PMI:
    • Prevents potential product failure. 
    • Ensures products/components are manufactured using the correct alloy. 
    • Identifies if the wrong material has been used. 
    • Finds potentially mixed-up alloys.
