UT Level II Limited Course & Elios AIIM UT Drone Training Course
If you’re a UT professional, you know the obstacles: hazardous environments, limited access, and time-consuming inspections. Traditional methods often fall short when it comes to safety and efficiency in confined or high-risk spaces.
That’s why MFE Inspection Solutions, in collaboration with ASNT, is bringing you a transformative training solution—combining ultrasonic testing with drone-based inspection using the Flyability Elios 3 UT payload system.
Whether you’re just getting started in UT or you’re a seasoned Level III, this pathway gives you the skills, certifications, and real-world experience you need to lead in the evolving NDT landscape.
