Internal Flaw Detection

This section encompasses the methods used to detect flaws or record measurements below the surface of a material. These methods are non-destructive and can provide accurate information regarding irregularities within a part.

The methods included in this section use Acoustic testing or sound waves, electromagnetic waves and radiographic examination to test and inspect materials and components. The processes included cover a wide range of applications, with some methods focusing on specific applications such as weld defect detection.

Specific Processes in this section include:
• Ultrasonic Inspection
• Radiographic Examination (X-Ray)
• Eddy-Current Testing
• Ultrasonic Immersion Inspection
• Time of Flight Inspection
• Phased Array Inspection
