Advanced Magnetic Particle Testers for Precise Flaw Detection
Reliable magnetic inspection systems engineered to uncover surface and near-surface defects efficiently and accurately.
Magnetic Particle Testing Systems for Reliable Flaw Detection
Magnetic Particle Testing (MPT) is a proven nondestructive method used to detect surface and near-surface defects in ferromagnetic materials. This webpage details the comprehensive capabilities, features, and industry applications of Magnetic Particle Testers. These systems apply magnetic fields to the tested object and detect discontinuities through the visible accumulation of magnetic particles, ensuring early identification of cracks, inclusions, or other flaws that could compromise structural integrity.
Serving diverse industries such as automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing, Magnetic Particle Testing enhances safety, quality control, and maintenance efficiency.
