Applied Technical Services performs NDI magnetic particle testing to detect surface and subsurface flaws in ferromagnetic materials. Magnetic particle inspections, also referred to as MPI, is a versatile and cost-effective nondestructive testing and inspection method that offers precise results with short turnaround time. When a ferromagnetic material is magnetized, any present defects cause magnetic flux to leak. Our magnetic particle testing experts then apply ferrous particles that help identify discontinuities as well as their characteristics and cause.
