FAQs
Penetrant testing, also known as dye penetrant inspection, is a non-destructive testing (NDT) technique used to detect surface-breaking defects such as cracks, porosity, laps, and seams on the surface of solid materials.
MPI (Magnetic Particle Inspection) testing is a non-destructive testing method used to detect surface and slightly subsurface defects in ferromagnetic materials such as iron, nickel, and cobalt. It is commonly used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and oil and gas.
Yes, there are different versions of black ink available depending on the form and suspension liquid.
MIK80 comes in various versions (Version A, B, C, D, S) depending on the sediment levels. The standard MIK80 (Version A) comes with a sediment of 1.2-2.4 ml/100ml (1 h) according to the ASME standard.
The black ink is typically applied to the surface being inspected by either spraying or brushing it on.
Yes, the black ink used in MPI testing is generally safe to use. However, it is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and safety precautions when handling and using the ink.
Yes, other colors such as red, blue, and green can be used in MPI testing. However, black ink is the most commonly used color because it provides the highest contrast and is therefore the easiest to interpret.
MIK80 is designed to offer excellent particle mobility reducing the background even when oversprayed.
SWT is a proprietary technology used in preparing MIK80 which enhances the particle mobility, reduces the background, super wets the carrier media for quick indications and increases particle build-up, thereby increasing the sensitivity significantly.
