Magnetic particle inspection is a nondestructive inspection method used for detection of surface and subsurface flaws in ferrous parts. MPI inspection is used to inspect a variety of product forms such as castings, forgings, and weldments.

Dry and wet particles are available to suit your needs
Choose from fluorescent or visible for UV or daylight inspection
Particle size is controlled to ensure maximum sensitivity
Fluorescent particles are encapsulated to minimize separation of fluorescence from particles


Benefits

Our magnetic particles are designed to hold up better and do not break down during agitation. This avoids having to change the bath as often and insures consistent performance during inspection.

The only requirement from an inspectability standpoint is that the component being inspected must be made of a ferromagnetic material such as iron, nickel or cobalt, or some of their alloys. Ferromagnetic materials are materials that can be magnetized to a level that will allow the inspection to be effective.

The MAGNAGLO product line is our fluorescent (requires a black light) wet method magnetic particle materials used in Magnetic Particle Inspection to locate surface and subsurface flaws in ferrous parts.

The MAGNAFLUX product line is our dry method, non-fluorescent magnetic particles materials used in Magnetic Particle Inspection to detect surface and subsurface flaws in ferrous parts.
