Magnetic Particle Inspection UK
Advanced Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) Services in the UK
Magnetic Particle Inspection is a highly effective non-destructive testing method used to identify surface and near-surface defects in ferromagnetic materials.
At Detect Inspect, we provide expert MPI Testing UK services designed to ensure structural integrity, safety, and compliance across various industries.
What is Magnetic Particle Inspection?
Magnetic Particle Inspection works by magnetising a component and applying iron particles to reveal discontinuities such as cracks, seams, or inclusions. This method is ideal for detecting defects that may not be visible to the naked eye.
Key Benefits of MPI Testing
