Frequently asked questions

What is Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)?

NDT examines materials, equipment and components for defects or deterioration without damaging their intended usability.

Which NDT services does VSSC offer?

We offer Visual Testing (VT), Magnetic Particle Testing (MT/MP), Radiographic Testing (RT) and Ultrasonic Thickness Testing (UT).

How is the appropriate testing method selected?

The method depends on the material, equipment condition, accessibility and type of defect being assessed. Some inspections may require multiple methods.

Can NDT detect every type of defect?

No single method can detect every defect. Each technique has specific capabilities and limitations, so selecting the appropriate method is essential.

What does ultrasonic thickness testing measure?

It measures material thickness at selected locations to help assess wall thinning caused by corrosion or erosion.

How often should NDT inspections be carried out?

Inspection frequency depends on equipment usage, operating conditions, previous findings and applicable inspection requirements.
