Non-Destructive Testing
Visual Testing (VT)
Visual testing is the foundation of every non-destructive testing inspection.
It precedes all other methods, establishes the component’s baseline condition and directs the inspection strategy — often while the machinery keeps running.
- 01 Primary assessment
Visual inspection typically precedes all other NDT methods, establishing baseline conditions and identifying areas requiring further examination
- 02 Defect documentation
Various defect types including cracks, discoloration, corrosion, and material peeling are systematically recorded and analyzed
- 03 In-service capability
Unique advantage of performing inspections while machinery remains operational, minimizing production downtime
- 04 Cost optimization
Determines component suitability and guides appropriate testing methods, preventing unnecessary maintenance expenses while ensuring operational reliability
