MISTRAS Group (NYSE: MG) announced expanded capabilities at its Los Angeles, California laboratory to support commercial and military aerospace & defense manufacturers facing significant production backlogs. The lab has added welding, grinding, and rework services, plus two CNC machines and vertical turning centers able to handle parts up to 3 tons.
The facility also now offers automated ultrasonic testing for plate and bar inspection and coordinate measuring machine dimensional inspection. These upgrades build on existing NDT and chemical processing capabilities. The Los Angeles lab holds NADCAP accreditation for NDT and chemical processing, Prime certifications, ITAR compliance, and is expected to achieve NADCAP accreditation in welding. According to MISTRAS, this investment aligns with a broader strategic plan that recently included upgrades to its Houston, Texas lab.
MISTRAS Group (NYSE: MG) announced the launch of AEScout, a rapid-deployment acoustic emission (AE) monitoring solution designed to help industrial operators detect active damage mechanisms and make data-driven asset integrity decisions. AEScout focuses on localized monitoring of known or suspected areas of concern, helping determine whether cracking, corrosion-related activity, fatigue, or other mechanisms are active during operation and providing insight between traditional inspection intervals.
According to the company, AEScout complements conventional non-destructive testing (NDT) and supports risk-based inspection (RBI) and integrity management programs. The system offers up to four AE channels for localized activity detection and source location, uses wireless data transmission to a cloud-based monitoring environment for remote review and expert interpretation, and is tailored for hazardous environments with cabling and power constraints. Its low-power, event-driven design aims to capture relevant data efficiently and underpins MISTRAS’ emerging Integrity Management as a Service model, where customers maintain on-site monitoring capability while MISTRAS provides guidance, cloud access, data interpretation, engineering support, and reporting.
MISTRAS Group (NYSE:MG) expanded its Houston, Texas in-house lab to enhance support for aerospace and defense manufacturing. New capabilities include aerospace casting weld repair to AWS D17.1, precision machining and finishing, immersion and rotary ultrasonic inspection, fluorescent penetrant inspection, ultrasonic cleaning, DI water processing, and 320kV digital radiography.
The lab already provides radiography, magnetic particle testing, PMI, hardness testing, and 25-ton crane capacity. It holds ISO 9001, Prime certifications, and ITAR compliance, and is expected to achieve NADCAP accreditation in multiple disciplines in late 2026, supporting throughput, service depth, and long-term earnings power.
