The MPI Testing Machine performs magnetic particle inspection to check metal components for defects. The method allows for testing the part without causing any damage to it. The machine primarily Sismetic to evaluate ferromagnetic materials which include both iron and steel.
The machine establishes a magnetic field which penetrates into the metal component during the inspection. The operator then applies magnetic particles to the test surface. The particles collect around any defects which makes the defect more visible for the inspector. This technique enables the detection of extremely tiny defect which are normally invisible to the human eye.
The automotive industry, railway sector, aerospace field and heavy engineering sector extensively utilize MPI Testing Machines. The inspection process evaluates essential components which include shafts, gears, bolts and other vital parts. The machine detects defects at an early stage which results in better product quality and enhanced safety and protection of essential components from failure.
