NON DESTRUCTIVE TESTING : NDT

Today modern nondestructive tests are used in manufacturing fabrication and in-service inspections to ensure product integrity and reliability to control manufacturing processes lower production costs and to maintain a uniform quality level. During construction NDT is used to ensure the quality of materials and joining processes during the fabrication and erection phases and in-service NDT inspections are used to ensure that the products in use continue to have the integrity necessary to ensure their usefulness and the safety of the public.It should be noted that while the medical field uses many of the same processes the term nondestructive testing is generally not used to describe medical applications.
