Collection: Wet Method Nonfluorescent Magnetic Particles
Wet Method Nonfluorescent Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) technique used to detect surface and slightly subsurface discontinuities, such as cracks, in ferromagnetic materials.
Wet Method
-
Medium: The wet method uses a liquid carrier (usually water or oil) to suspend fine magnetic particles.
-
Advantages:
- The liquid helps carry and spread the magnetic particles evenly over the part being inspected.
- It allows better sensitivity for detecting smaller defects, as the particles can flow easily into fine cracks or defects.
- Can be applied more effectively on complex geometries
Nonfluorescent
-
Particle Type: Nonfluorescent particles are visible under regular white light, as opposed to fluorescent particles that require UV light.
-
Appearance: Nonfluorescent particles typically appear as black or dark-colored against the background, making them visible to the naked eye under normal lighting conditions.
