Magnetic Particle Testing (MT) is the inspection process designed to detect surface and near subsurface discontinuities of ferromagnetic materials. This method is very useful and wildly used in many applications such as welded fabrications, casting, and more.
Magnetic Particle Testing Processes
For this process, the inspected area is magnetized by the use of yoke then ferromagnetic particles are applied. If the discontinuities are found, the line of magnetic particles will be seen around the defects.
Advantages of Magnetic Particle Testing Method
-
Can detect both surface and near sub-surface defects
-
Can detect very small defects
-
Fast process with immediate results
-
Indications are visible directly on the part surface
-
Can inspect parts with complex shapes
Magnetic testing is the simple method to identify surface and sub-surface discontinuities. However, in order to comply with the international standards, it requires certified operators to conduct the test. We can provide the service with the reliable instrument with certified inspectors.
