In 1988, what first started as an "innovative approach" to rail testing, RTI was formed and to this day they continue to combine this philosophical approach in all that they do. Better technology; better detection for Australia and those worldwide.

RTI CEO Alex Ivachev said, “RTI was established to provide the rail industry with the best rail flaw detection technology possible, and ensure problems are found before they begin. Our philosophy is to design and develop systems that produce repeatability, repeatability, repeatability. It is not enough to simply find the flaws in the rail, but to find the cause before they exist.”

RTI, unlike other rail NDT companies, aim to find the smallest of rail inclusions, so that they can be proactively managed before damage is caused, rather than react to track decay.

RTI actively decided that if 300 microns can initiate failure in heavy haul railways, detectors of this small magnitude should be their target. RTI believe that finding even the smallest of defects makes it easier to manage track conditions.

Their 5th generation 8000SX technology, 805SX Handheld Weld Testers, rail testing vehicles, and ultrasonic testing systems combined with in-line steel plant ultrasonic systems, weld assessment, rail flaw consultancy and cleanliness testing is what makes RTI a fundamental part of the rail industry.

Through their commitment to research and development, RTI have designed, manufactured and supplied the world's most intelligent and comprehensive Rail Flaw Management Systems. RTI is focused on design, manufacture and sales.
