Concise Highlight On Non Destructive Testing

• Non Destructive Testing (NDT) covers that huge
  range of technical analysis, which is used in
  both industry and science for evaluating
  properties of component, system or material
  without causing any harm or damage to them.
  Another definition for nondestructive inspection
  is the procedure to inspect, evaluate or test
  assemblies, materials or components for its
  discontinuities or the differences in the
  characteristics without hampering the systems or
  parts serviceability. In simple words you can
  say that the inspection done in such a manner
  that the inspected part can be used still after
  test being done.
• When you talk about other tests they, to some
  extent, destroy the tested part or system. Thus,
  they are done on very few samples, instead of on
  the assemblies, materials or components that have
  to be actually used.
• Destructive Testing is used often for determining
  the components physical properties like impact
  resistance, ultimate tensile and yield,
  ductility, fatigue strength and fracture
  toughness, but the differences and
  discontinuities in any material component
  characteristics are found more effectively by
  NDT.
• In the modern era non destructive examinations
  are used mainly in fabrication, testing and
  manufacturing the material being used for
  ensuring its reliability and integrity, for
  controlling manufacturing processes, for
  maintaining a uniform level of quality and for
  lowering the overall cost of production.
