Bioscan Inspection Technology
Bioscan’s inspection technology is an electronic method of detecting defects, such as cracks, incomplete weld fusion, corrosion cavities, porosity and other defects that may cause contamination and/or cross-contamination of the finished product in stainless steel pressure and non-pressure vessels.
Our technology is capable of identifying the depth of the cracks found. We can also perform a material thickness check to locate any weak spots in the vessel.
Bioscan’s Inspection Technology is competent to test items such as:
The equipment comprises a multi-channel scanning system in order to enable a quick and sensitive scan across large surface areas. Also attached is a single channel probe system to enable scanning of small areas, such as corners and pipe attachments.
Repairs
As well as carrying out a complete crack test, we have a team of fully qualified and competent welders, who will repair all cracks to sanitary standards. We will then re-test any areas that have been repaired to ensure no further cracking.

Reporting & Certification
We will provide you with a full detailed analysis report of your vessel, including before and after photos of cracks found. A 3D drawing of your vessel is implemented into the report and the location of any cracks, so that a year-on-year comparison can be determined of the vessels’ condition.
An examination certificate of your vessel will be issued for your audit requirements, if a pass criteria is met.
