The performance of feasibility studies and the construction of prototype inspection equipment, including special instrumentation, has been a significant auxiliary activity of TAC TECHNICAL INSTRUMENT CORP. since our inception in 1962. This work has been done for a number of customers with special inspection requirements or problems. It may lead to the design of new inspection equipment, the establishment of new test techniques or determination of the operational or economic practicality of ultrasonic inspection of parts of a specific type or configuration.
