Non-destructive testing (NDT)<\/strong> is an essential tool for ensuring the safety, quality, and durability of plants, structures, and materials. Industries such as oil and gas, aeronautics, mechanical manufacturing, and construction rely on NDTs to prevent breakdowns, reduce risk, and optimize maintenance programs. <\/p>\n This guide proposes a checklist in 7 concrete actions<\/strong>, designed to guide companies in the management of non-destructive testing.<\/p>\n Remember: this checklist serves as a preliminary guide and never replaces the intervention of a certified professional<\/strong>.<\/u><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”||||||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Montserrat||||||||” custom_margin=”||25px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Not all components require the same level of attention. Parts subject to cyclic loads, vibrations, high pressures, extreme temperatures, or corrosive environments are more at risk of defects and failure. <\/p>\n Identifying these areas is the first step in planning effective controls. The choice must be based on risk analysis, industry regulations and previous failures or anomalies found in similar systems. <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”||||||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Montserrat||||||||” custom_margin=”||25px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n There are several NDT<\/strong> techniques, each with specific advantages and limitations:<\/p>\n The choice of method depends on the material, the type of defect to be identified and the operating environment.<\/p>\n In-depth analysis: <\/strong>Non-destructive testing: which is the best control?<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”||||||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Montserrat||||||||” custom_margin=”||25px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n A non-destructive test is only effective if performed by certified operators<\/strong>, according to standards such as ISO 9712.
