Nondestructive Testing (NDT)

Nondestructive testing (NDT) is a group of inspection methods used to evaluate materials, components, or structures without causing damage. It helps identify defects or weaknesses in items like bridges, aircraft, and pipes, ensuring safety and reliability. Techniques include ultrasound, x-rays, and magnetic particle testing, allowing experts to see inside or assess surfaces without altering the object. NDT is crucial in industries such as manufacturing, construction, and energy, as it helps prevent failures and maintains quality while extending the lifespan of critical assets.
