What is Non-destructive testing (NDT)???

Non-destructive testing (NDT) 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.

Why use Non-destructive testing ???

Using the correct practices and techniques, non-destructive testing can save individuals and companies a huge amount of time and money when a component or structure has to be examined internally. Where there maybe doubt over the quality, structural integrity or location of important structural components, (NDT) can eliminate the need for destructive testing, which may compromise the structure even further and sometimes prove unnecessarily.    

What applications does Non-destructive testing apply to ???

There are numerous applications in the field of (NDT), this is more favourable to the construction and engineering sector where destructive testing can be extremely expensive and time consuming. Once the (NDT) has been carried out on a particular component and the data analysed, it can then be determined by qualified personal the next cause of action. In most cases the cost of conducting the (NDT) far out ways the cost of destructive testing, especially when the destructive testing may have proven unnecessary.

 

  • Because (NDT) does not permanently alter the article being inspected, it is a highly-valuable technique that can save both money and time in product evaluation, troubleshooting, and research.
