ACFM Weld & Hull Crack Inspection — Barcelona

Alternating Current Field Measurement (ACFM) detects and sizes surface-breaking cracks in steel through the coating, without the surface preparation magnetic particle inspection requires — well suited to in-water structural welds where grinding back to bare metal isn't practical. Every crack indication found is sized and mapped directly onto the vessel's 3D digital twin, alongside the video record of the read.

Why it matters in Barcelona

One of the busiest ports in the Mediterranean, combining a major container and cruise terminal with the Port Vell marina district in the same harbor.

Commercial shipping, cruise calls, and a dense marina all sharing one harbor means hull survey, quay infrastructure, and routine seabed clearance work all have a genuine local market here.

Deliverable

A crack-sizing report with every indication mapped onto the 3D model, without stripping the coating.
