NDT-Magnetic Particle Testing-MPI

Course details

Magnetic particle testing is suitable for surface and sub-surface defect detection in ferromagnetic materials. The surface can be covered with thin layer of dielectric coating. It can be applied even on site or for serial testing.

What you will learn

Training is based on understanding the simple physical principle and on upgrading this knowledge with specific needs of magnetic particle testing. The operator shall know how to verify the proper function of the process, which assures relevant results of the testing.

The level 1 training covers theory overview in direct connection to requirements of the relevant standards. This gained knowledge will prepare operator for accurate test performance. Training for Level 2 operators covers additionally detailed overview of relevant evaluation standards. The training is accompanied by practical tasks with testing and evaluation of samples.

Level I training highlights:

• Choosing the magnetization technique
• Determining of current intensity
• Verification of magnetic field intensity
• Detection media check
• Viewing conditions
• Overall process check
• Working with standards
• Health Safety and Environment

Level II training highlights

• Selection of suitable equipment
• Application of standard requirements
• Deeper insight into the physics
• Creation of written procedure
• Decision about the test results
• Health Safety and Environment 

About certification

The examination and certification process is directly related to qualification system. In case when the training is performed in accordance with EN 473 / ISO 9712 the certificate can be issued by independent European certification body ATG CERT.
