Scottish events 2020

摘要

The Scottish Branch is pleased to report several successful events, held on Friday 24 January 2020 at the Watermill Hotel, Paisley. The events complemented each other, leading up to the Annual Burns Supper in the evening. The day's events were co-organised with the Advanced Nuclear Research Centre (ANRC). 15 companies (Agility, Ashtead, Chemetall, Druck, Eddyfi, ETher, GB Inspection, HTSL, JR Technologies, Novosound, Oceanscan, Olympus, Peak NDT, Sonatest and Zetec), plus BINDT and ANRC, exhibited this year, filling the room. The event ran from 10.00 am until 3.30 pm, with the attendance boosted during a morning coffee break and then an extended lunch by 70 attendees at the seminar. Feedback from the exhibitors was positive. 30 years after the landmark NDE in the Nuclear Industry Conference held in Glasgow in 1990, this seminar reviewed the evolution of nuclear NDT, lessons to be learned in the nuclear and other industries and future research directions. The morning 'industry session' was organised by the Scottish Branch and the afternoon 'research session' by ANRC.
