Subject:

Non-destructive testing (NDT)

Definition:

Non-destructive testing is a wide group of analysis techniques used in science and industry to evaluate the properties of a material , component or system without causing damage.

Types Of NDT

PENETRANT TESTING MAGNETIC PARTICLE TESTING ULTRASONIC TESTING EDDY CURRENT TESTING RADIOGRAPHIC TESTING

Penetrant Testing
Scientific Principles
Penetrant solution is applied to the surface of pre-cleaned component. The liquid is pulled into surface-breaking defects by capillary action

Main uses
Used to locate cracks and other defects that break the
surface of a material and have enough volume to trap and hold the penetrant material

Main advantages
Large surface areas or large volumes of parts/materials can be inspected rapidly and at low cost

Disadvantages
Detects only surface breaking defects

Magnetic particles testing

Scientific principles
A magnetic field is established in a component made from ferromagnetic material

Main uses
Used to inspect ferromagnetic material for defects that results in transition in the magnetic permeability a material

Main advantages
Large surface areas of complex parts can be inspected rapidly. Can detect surface and sub surface flaws

Disadvantages
Only ferromagnetic materials can be inspected

Ultrasonic Testing
Scientific principles
High frequency sound waves are send into a material by use of a transducer

Main uses
Used to locate surface and sub surface defects in many materials including materials including metals , plastics and wood.

Main advantages
Only singles sided access is required. Provides distance information. Minimum part preparation is required.

Disadvantages
Surface must be accessible to probe and complaint.

Skill and training required is more extensive than other techniques

Radio Graphic Testing

Scientific principles
X-ray are used to produce images of objects using film or other detector that is sensitive to radiation

Main uses
Used to inspect almost any material for surface and subsurface defects. X-ray can also be used to locates and measures internal features, confirm the location of hidden parts in an a assembly , and to measure thickness of materials

Main advantages
Defects surface and sub surface defects.

Disadvantages
Extensive operator training and skill required. Access to both sides of the structure is usually required.
