Safran approves AeroTek’s Non-Destructive Testing (NDT): Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) and Liquid Particle Inspection (LPI) processes on Landing Gear parts

Safran Landing Gear has approved AeroTek’s NDT (MPI & LPI) processes.

Approved specifications include:


MPI per PCS3100

LPI Method A & D per PCS3200


These new services are immediately now provided by AeroTek Mfg to sub-tiers in the Safran supply chain. 



AeroTek’s facility can provide MPI-NDT services for aerospace and other metal parts up to 14 ft. long, and LPI-NDT services for parts up to 5 ft. long. 

The company’s business has been providing aerospace coatings to Safran and others for close to 70 years.


We, at AeroTek, are proud to be able to provide more and more services to our customers every year. This year, following the completion of our new NDT line, in 2022, and approval by NADCAP, in February 2023, the aerospace OEM approvals have been flowing, from Bombardier approval in August 2023, to DeHavilland (Viking) approval of NDT in May 2024. And, now Safran approval of NDT.
