BWXT is People Strong, Innovation Driven - be part of BWXT's innovation hub. BWXT's Lynchburg Technology Center (LTC) consists of five discrete laboratory operations, namely, Nuclear Materials Engineering (NME), Radioisotope & Analytical Chemistry Laboratory (RACL), Nondestructive Evaluation & Inspection Systems (NDE&IS), Metallurgical Laboratory (MET), and Advanced Fuel Development (ADVF). This organization operates under an NRC license with radioactive facilities dealing with special nuclear material as well as by-product materials.

The Non-Destructive Evaluation and Inspection Systems (NDE&IS) group at LTC research, develops, and builds custom non-destructive inspection systems for both internal and external customers. These non-destructive evaluation (NDE) systems are mostly based on ultrasonic testing but can involve electromagnetic (i.e., eddy current and magnetic) testing or vision systems. NDE&IS also supports the development of advanced induction heating applications.

The NDE&IS group is comprised of ten staff members that provide physics, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, software engineering, and system build up capabilities. NDE&IS maintains extensive capabilities for modeling ultrasonic wave propagation, ultrasonic inspections, and eddy current inspections. NDE&IS also has enterprise level finite element modeling (FEM) capability for electromagnetics, thermal, and stress analysis. To further support the buildup of these systems NDE&IS has full electrical, electronics, and printed circuit board development capabilities.
