Magnetic Analysis Corp. Acquires TacTicTM Ultrasonic NDT Systems
Magnetic Analysis Corporation, (MAC®) a designer and producer of non-destructive test instruments and systems since 1928, is pleased to announce the asset acquisition of TacTicTM, a Division of Laboratory Testing Inc. (LTI), effective February 28, 2022.
Originally founded as TAC Technical Instru- ment Corp. in 1962, the company became part of LTI’s operations in 2018. The acqui- sition will broaden MAC’s range of NDT systems to include automated and special- ized immersion, “spin the tube” ultrasonic test systems to detect surface and subsur- face defects in round tube, pipe, and bar.
These systems are especially applicable to metal producers who are looking for a
cost-effective system to test small batches of material or frequent diameter size changes.
In making the announcement, MAC® Pres- ident and CEO Dudley Boden noted that “This is a natural fit for us as we have part- nered with TacTicTM for a number of years supplying our Echomac® Ultrasonic Elec- tronics for integration with TacTic’s systems. Both companies have a long history of helping metal producers achieve reliable, high-quality inspection that meets their spe- cific needs and many of TacTic’s customers are also customers of MAC.
Support will be handled through our existing field network of Engineers and experienced
