Properties of VUCIS Magnetic particle inspection is a non-destructive testing method used to identify cracks and defects in magnetic materials. In this method, a fine magnetic powder is applied to the surface of the workpiece. The powder accumulates in the cracks and makes them visible. By using UV light as an illumination source, the cracks […]
