At Riyaarth Overseas, quality control is the cornerstone of our manufacturing excellence. We implement a comprehensive set of quality control measures at every stage of production to ensure that every pipe meets or exceeds international standards. From raw material inspection to final packaging, our processes are meticulously monitored to deliver reliable and defect-free piping solutions across industries such as oil & gas, construction, chemical processing, and water treatment.
Key Elements of Our Quality Control Process
Raw Material Inspection
Objective: Ensure only certified and high-quality raw materials enter the production process.
Process:
- Material certifications are verified for chemical and mechanical properties.
- Visual inspection and material testing are performed for surface defects and inconsistencies.
- Non-conforming materials are immediately quarantined and rejected.
In-Process Quality Monitoring
Objective: Maintain process integrity and consistency throughout manufacturing.
Process:
- Dimensional checks are conducted at multiple production stages using calibrated gauges and tools.
- Surface finish, wall thickness, and roundness are monitored in real-time.
- Any deviations from the defined tolerances trigger corrective action.
Destructive and Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)
Testing Method | Purpose | Applications |
Hydrostatic Testing | Assess leak resistance and pressure endurance by pressurizing pipes with water. | Oil & gas pipelines, water distribution systems. |
Ultrasonic Testing (UT) | Detect internal flaws or discontinuities using high-frequency sound waves. | Welded pipes, structural systems. |
Radiographic Testing (RT) | Examine welds and pipe bodies using X-rays or gamma rays to identify defects. | High-pressure pipelines in chemical processing. |
Eddy Current Testing | Detect surface and near-surface defects in conductive materials. | HVAC systems, fire protection pipelines. |
Tensile & Hardness Tests | Evaluate mechanical properties like yield strength and elongation under stress conditions. | Construction frameworks, marine applications. |
Final Inspection & Documentation
Objective: Certify each product as fit for delivery.
Process:
- Visual inspections for cleanliness, markings, and surface quality.
- Dimensional checks against customer specifications.
- Third-party inspection can be arranged upon request.
- Final documentation includes Mill Test Certificates (MTC), inspection reports, and compliance certificates.
Traceability & Identification
Objective: Enable complete traceability from raw material to finished product.
Process:
- Each pipe is marked with the grade, size, heat number, batch number, and production date.
- All production data is stored digitally and can be retrieved upon customer request.
