Non-Destructive Testing Responsibility
Non-destructive testing responsibility specifies that the testing personnel are qualified and certified to ISO 9712. This ensures error-free analyses without damaging the test specimen.
Physical-Chemical Mechanism of Action
Non-destructive testing means that the analysis methods do not cause physical changes or damage to the sample material structure. This is achieved through special methods such as microscopic examination or chemical analysis.
Metallurgical Relevance & Welding Risks
In flawless analysis, it is crucial that the samples remain unchanged. Destruction of the sample can lead to incorrect results and damage confidence in the test results. This can lead to safety issues or errors in the production process.
Workshop Practice & Action Instructions
To ensure non-destructive testing responsibility, inspectors must:
• Be certified ISO 9712
• Have qualifications according to specified requirements
• Use methods that do not cause damage to the sample
• Document all tests carefully
• Use special non-destructive testing equipment when necessary
