Laboratory services
Confirmation of technical safety and product quality assessment is one of the main tasks facing an enterprise whose products must comply with domestic and international standards. To solve these tasks, destructive and non-destructive testing is used, among other methods.
All traditional laboratory testing methods are available and used by our laboratory to determine the behavior and characteristics of standard material samples under mechanical stress.

Laboratory Goals and Objectives
The testing analytical laboratory for destructive and non-destructive testing performs an important part of RBI Concept company's work. The laboratory is accredited according to GOST ISO/IEC 17025-2009 "General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories".
The main task of the laboratory is conducting qualification tests and research for:
- investigating corrosion reliability of equipment;
- certification of welding technologies and welders undergoing certification.
The purpose of testing is to verify compliance of:
- certified technology or welder qualifications with EN, ASME, DIN, ASIA standards requirements;
- various measures to improve corrosion reliability of equipment and/or determination of degradation mechanisms.
Main types of destructive testing in the laboratory:
- mechanical static tests (at normal, elevated, reduced temperature, long-term strength, thin sheets, wire, pipes, reinforcement and welded joints);
- tensile creep up to 1200°C;
- compression strength;
- bending strength;
- impact bending;
- hardness measurement (Vickers, Brinell, ball indentation, Rockwell);
- mechanical dynamic tests;
- corrosion tests (stress corrosion cracking, accelerated corrosion tests, hydrogen embrittlement, intergranular corrosion, etc.);
- metallographic studies;
- climatic tests (temperature and humidity effects);
- chemical analysis.
Main types of non-destructive testing:
- visual-dimensional;
- ultrasonic flaw detection;
- ultrasonic thickness measurement;
- liquid penetrant;
- magnetic particle;
- eddy current;
- acoustic emission.
The reason for organizing our own laboratory base was the processed experience of interaction with engaged third-party laboratories. Practice showed scatter in test results, and the specificity of issuing protocols in two languages for international certification puts most laboratories in a dead end, as such additions to provided protocols require changes to the laboratory's own regulatory documents. In turn, the inability to be present during testing and control each stage leads to delays and not always acceptable results.
Our clients value us, and we cherish them.
The obvious benefit is to give the entire complex of work to one company. The approach is justified from the point of view of time savings, significant cost savings, and achieving service quality criteria.
-
Our control over the laboratory reduces the time for the entire testing complex to several days, including the tests themselves, sample preparation and results processing.
-
Work results are issued in two languages and conducted according to various standards.
-
With a comprehensive approach, information about non-compliance in one of the tests is promptly transmitted by the project manager to the customer for making decisions for re-certification or correction.
-
All laboratory equipment regularly undergoes verification and calibration, the testing base is constantly updated.
-
Personnel are certified and undergo annual qualification upgrades.
-
The expert approach of specialists will avoid overpaying for unnecessary research and determine only the necessary scope at the stage of Technical Specification approval.
