Smarter MPI Testing and Demagnetisation Solutions for the Oil & Gas Industry

Customer Story: Advanced MPI and Demagnetisation System for Oil & Gas Applications

We recently quoted a major oil and gas customer seeking a complete Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) solution designed for accuracy, efficiency, and repeatability in component testing. To meet their requirements, we proposed the PROMAG APEX Stationary MPI Bench — a reliable, ISO 9001–designed system built to ASTM E709, ASTM E1444, and NADCAP standards.

Engineered for multi-directional magnetisation, touchscreen PLC control, and traceable digital reporting, the APEX Series ensures dependable detection of surface and sub-surface defects in oilfield parts, connectors, and machined components. To future-proof their investment, we also discussed integration of AI-powered automated defect recognition, enabling a phased transition from operator-assisted to fully automated inspection.

To complement the MPI system, we included the Industrial Demagnetiser — providing efficient, precision-controlled demagnetisation for inspection and production. With digitally guided power modules, high-power coils, and PLC-based control, it delivers consistent, repeatable removal of residual magnetism — an essential step before MPI, eddy current testing, or final assembly.

Key Highlights:

  • PROMAG APEX MPI System: Multi-directional magnetisation; PLC + HMI control; ASTM/NADCAP compliance; optional AI-assisted inspection.

  • Industrial Demagnetiser: Digitally controlled precision demagnetisation; pulse or continuous modes; durable coil design with temperature monitoring.

  • Smart Integration: Seamless MPI + demagnetisation workflow for maximum inspection accuracy and process efficiency.

  • Flexible Options: Custom coil and power module designs to suit varied part sizes and field strengths.

Together, these systems deliver reliable, high-precision inspection performance — empowering oil and gas operators to maintain quality, compliance, and confidence in every component.
