Industries Served
Aerospace
Overview
Inspection in this industry.
Aerospace parts are made from high-strength steels, titanium, aluminum, nickel superalloys, and composites, and are designed with tight margins. NDT verifies forgings, castings, machined parts, and bonded or welded assemblies before they enter service.
Aerospace NDT is governed by prime-contractor specifications and personnel certification schemes such as NAS 410.
Inspection Challenges
What makes this work demanding.
Small acceptance limits
High sensitivity requirements call for fluorescent penetrant, eddy current, and tight process control.
Diverse materials
Alloy and composite choices drive method selection.
Process control
Customer specifications control materials, equipment checks, and records in detail.
