Non-Destructive Testing
Nondestructive testing (NDT), also referred to as nondestructive examination (NDE) and nondestructive inspection (NDI), refers to any testing systems that do not permanently alter the workpiece or object being tested. NDT is useful in a multitude of fields, and can be performed on a wide variety of substances, including metals, food products, historical objects, and medical equipment. In manufacturing, NDT is a useful process for verifying a weld. NDT is capable of discovering cracks or porosity inside a weld, along with variations in density, that could result in a break or rupture. Common NDTs include visual inspection, ultrasonic, radiographic, liquid penetrant, magnetic-particle, and eddy-currant testing.
Balancing Technologies Contribute Significantly to Reliable Machining Operations
By ensuring perfect balance, balancing technologies reduce the risk of damage and improve the overall efficiency of the manufacturing process.
By ensuring perfect balance, balancing technologies reduce the risk of damage and improve the overall efficiency of the manufacturing process.
Balancing tool assemblies set the stage for smooth machining that produces parts with consistent surface finish. Balancing also accelerates production because speeds and feeds can increase without compromising the part.
Selecting a videoscope with a suitable scope diameter along with ergonomics and durability can help inspectors stay comfortable and productive.
Uncover hidden defects before downstream processes are impacted with the latest 3D scanners, powerful software packages and portable measurement devices.
Laser weld inspection systems using 3D imaging can improve productivity and quality control of ERW and HFI tube welding by working in conjunction with other NDT testing.
REGO-FIX partners with Omega TMM to create the ORION powered by REGO-FIX – a tool measuring machine using REGO-FIX’s powRgrip tool holding system with Omega TMM’s presetting technology.
Efficiency-optimizing enhancements unveiled by Evident Corp. on its MapROVER™ and SteerROVER™ corrosion and weld inspection scanners.
With the launch of its Inspector83x 2D vision sensor, SICK has enabled out-of-the-box Artificial Intelligence machine vision inspections for common inline inspection tasks in demanding high-speed production. The no-stress teach-in capability of the SICK Inspector83x can be used by non-specialists…
