Introduction to Non Destructive Testing

NDT [Nondestructive testing] is the procedure of inspecting, evaluating, or testing components, materials, or assemblies for differences, or discontinuities, in characteristics without causing damage to the serviceability of the system or the part. In simple words, when the test or inspection is finished the part can still be utilized.

Contrary to NDT, other tests are destructive in nature and so they are performed on a restricted number of samples instead of carrying out on the components, materials, or assemblies that are essentially being put into service. The destructive tests are utilized to decide the materials’ physical properties like ductility, impact resistance, yield, ultimate tensile strength, fatigue strength, and fracture toughness, however, discontinuities and dissimilarities in material characteristics are more efficiently found by NDT.


Various industries

The modern-day nondestructive tests are utilized in fabrication, manufacturing, and in-service inspections to guarantee product reliability and integrity, control manufacturing procedures, reduce production costs, and uphold a uniform quality level. Throughout construction, nondestructive testing is employed to ensure the material quality and the fineness of joining processes in the fabrication and erection stages, and in-service NDT checks are utilized to warrant that the products in usage carry on to include the integrity required to guarantee their value and the protection of the general public.

NDT test methods

The names of test methods often signify the sort of penetrating medium or the equipment utilized to carry out that test. Existing NDT methods include AE [Acoustic Emission Testing], ET [Electromagnetic Testing], LM [Laser Testing Methods], LT [Leak Testing], MFL [Magnetic Flux Leakage], PT [Liquid Penetrant Testing], MT [Magnetic Particle Testing], NR [Neutron Radiographic Testing], RT [Radiographic Testing], IR [Thermal/Infrared Testing], UT [Ultrasonic Testing], VA [Vibration Analysis] and VT [Visual Testing].
