THIRD PARTY INSPECTION AND QUALITY ASSURANCE SERVICES

TCR ADVANCED, through its service partner company’s offices, provides inspection and quality assurance services to help retailers, trading partners, importers and manufacturers assess product quality and meet the regulatory requirements of their industry vertical. Independent, third-party inspection and quality assurance services results in improved product quality, with a reduction in customer complaints, noncompliance and product recalls. The on-site inspection team covers the all states across India and abroad. The pricing structure for the on-site inspection services is set competitively and is based on man-day charges.

TECHNICAL HELP FOR INDIGENIZATION

To unfold the metallurgical status/properties of imported components by destructive/nondestructive studies, to generate baseline standard for indigenization. Technical help is provided to decide manufacture route and guidance is provided to derive quality checks on indigenously developed components. Details required from client:

1. Working condition of component.
2. Type of loading & stresses.
3. Design and operation condition.
4. Service history of component.
5. Life of an important component.

SELECTION OF MATERIALS

Weight loss experiments. Samples of different metals/alloys are exposed under simulated or actual process plant solution in the laboratory with and without stirring. This technique has limited application. Coupon of different metals/alloys is exposed to actual plant environment. A systematic approach is formulated based on requirement of intended services, literate survey, and relevant standards like NACE, ASTM and API. The laboratory study is performed on exposed sample to categorize their performance and suitable MOC is recommended. Electrochemical experiments to find out relative corrosion resistance perfromed by accelerated testing under laboratory conditions. MOC selection is done with readymade database and experience of others from published literature.

QUALITY IMPROVEMENT

TCR Advanced undertakes total quality improvements for stringent requirements against international specifications. Thorough survey is undertaken by auditing existing manufacturing procedure. Stagewise investigations are followed for manufacturing of product including raw material. Effects of processing conditions are derived with respect to different properties of the component. Based on the study recommendations are made for improvements in metallurgical process/raw material. Required optimum quality control checks are suggested to ensure consistency in quality for continuous production. TCR Advanced deputes a team of metallurgical engineers to perform this task. report comprises of fundamentals of metallurgical processing variables on final propertis of component is submitted along with recommendations.

SOLUTIONS OF CRITICAL WELD PROBLEMS

TCR Advanced Engineering Pvt. Ltd., has vast expertise of solving critical weld repair solution of the aged plant components. Nowadays the material resources are limited and value of new product is increasing day bay day. The repair weld solutions can salvage the critical components of process plant and can made huge saving in terms of production loss. The repair weld technology requires in depth understanding of metallurgical degradations vis-a- vis operating conditions. Clear understanding of physical metallurgy and welding technology. There is a right solution of every problem and the solution can be found out by engineering and technical common sense with strong fundamentals. TCR has been leader in many aspects. The off shoot of knowledge bank at TCR Advanced is the successful stories behind more than 600 failure investigations of the industries. This insight in to the failure mechanisms has strengthen the knowledge of TCR technical team which is directly implemented for repair weld solution. When any plant of critical machinery component is under breakdown the immediate right solution is sought after manier times the repair weldings are done with little or No understanding about the metallurgical fundamentals which in turn proves to be disastrous and management looses the trust in the technical competency. This philosophy promotes hast decisions for replacing the components at premium cost. Instead of this a systematic detailed metallurgical investigation would provide the extent and nature of degradation there by utilizing knowledge of metallurgy a proper welding procedure can be devised. TCR ADVANCED has helped the industries by providing the repair solutions on critical pump casing, shaft, nitrided components reformers, and so on.

The engineering consulting team can be approached with detailed history of problem. Our team can reach to your sight with in 24 hrs and start generating information and data on the components to be repaired. For successful repair a mock up test is necessary from the same material preferably for the aged material of similar grade. Incase it is not available then virgin material of the similar grade is also useful. A mock up test will establish the confidence in welder and welding parameters. After successful welding through NDT testing is recommended to ensure the trouble free welding joint for future service.
