Non Destructive Testing (NDT) Laboratory

Non-destructive Testing (NDT)

Non-destructive testing (NDT) is the evaluation of materials without causing damage to the specimen. It is frequently used in a product’s failure analysis, quality testing, and inspection inside or outside the testing lab. NDT methods are rapid, reliable, and often standardized techniques used in offline batch inspections, in-line during manufacturing, or on-site inspection without disassembly. A wide range of surface and near-surface detection of defects, flaws, discontinuities, structural inspection, corrosion, and erosion detection is possible with high sensitivity depending on the NDT technique employed.

NDT methodologies are also adapted for micro and nanoscale analysis to inspect PCBs, nanomaterials, and semiconductor packaging. Defect detection, die-attached integrity, sealant integrity, and molding adhesion quality, among others, are possible via NDT techniques. Non-destructive testing (NDT) is sometimes referred to as non-destructive examination (NDE), non-destructive inspection (NDI), and non-destructive evaluation (NDE).

Laboratory experts at Infinita Lab assure the best regular non-destructive testing (NDT) to ensure your product performs as expected, reduces warranty costs, and provides satisfaction. The network of our testing labs in the USA is well equipped for carrying out product NDT.

Common Uses of  Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)

• NDT is used in commercial applications to make sure that vital infrastructure is adequately maintained to prevent disastrous mishaps.
• NDT procedures are frequently used in industrial settings, such as evaluating weak spots in a boiler at an oil refinery.
• Some of the most frequent applications are in the field of medicine.

Advantages of Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)

• Nondestructive Testing (NDT) is more desirable than destructive testing since the material or object being inspected can withstand the inspection without being injured, saving time, money, and resources.
• Practically all NDT methods—with the exception of radiographic testing—are safe for people.
• NDT techniques enable extensive and speedy asset evaluation, which is often essential for maintaining a job site’s performance and safety.
• When it comes to maintenance operations intended to protect the safety of employees and the longevity of equipment, NDT methods have been demonstrated to be accurate and predictable.
