The Modal Shop, Equipcon's Recent Partner!

Equipcon Group is proud to announce its strategic partnership with The Modal Shop, Inc., a reputable provider of Resonant Inspection Systems serving manufacturing facilities globally for over two decades.

Headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, The Modal Shop Inc. specializes in delivering structural vibration and acoustic sensing systems tailored for diverse applications in design and test laboratories, as well as manufacturing plants.

“This partnership allows a wider range of manufacturers to benefit from The Modal Shop’s proven line of NDT-RAM systems, improving manufacturing processes and facilitating the goal of shipping zero defects,” says Nicholas Tretola, Industrial Product Manager at The Modal Shop. “We are looking forward to working with Equipcon Group to better serve the needs of a wide range of customers.”

With an unwavering commitment to achieving Total Customer Satisfaction, their Non-Destructive Testing Systems utilize the Resonant Acoustic Method (NDT-RAM) to facilitate swift, automated pass/fail assessments, ensuring manufacturers attain 100% quality inspection of manufactured components. By harnessing the inherent acoustic signatures of parts, NDT-RAM systems scrutinize components for internal and external structural flaws, along with potential process deviations. Key applications encompass ductile and gray iron castings, powdered metal parts, additively manufactured components, and forgings.

Equipcon sees the value in this partnership with The Modal Shop being not just for increasing business and product range but truly benefiting our existing clients who process high-volume magnetic particle and fluorescent penetrant inspections. Their technology can easily presort production to eliminate parts that will fail the more costly magnetic particle and penetrant inspections, saving materials, labor, and time by not inspecting parts that will fail and improving the overall efficiency of the inspection. The return on investment of this technology is blindingly fast, and we are confident that our customers will appreciate this improvement to their bottom line and their entire NDT department's value.

Equipcon Group is pleased to integrate The Modal Shop's Resonance Inspection Systems into its array of offerings. This strategic alliance underscores a shared commitment to delivering value-driven solutions to manufacturing clients worldwide.
