Magnetic Particle Inspection - Where's the threads?

I'm researching mag particle inspection to see if this is a process that we would consider bringing in house. I did a forum search and almost nothing comes up. Does anyone out there perform mag particle inspection? Any suggestions on setting up the process?

Hello Lundberg,

I've searched on "Magnetic Particle Testing" and this came up: Magnetic or penetrant Flawdetection: Requirements of identification w/ letter M or P

Read this article: http://www.sme.org/cgi-bin/find-articles.pl?&04dem004&ME&20041209&&SME&

I preform some Magnetic Particle Inspection, were you looking at a portable unit or a wet flourescent bench type unit?

Generally the mag particle process is relatively easy to learn and easy to perform. Determine correct current, setup part, coat with fluid, press start, look for particle collection is really all it breaks down to.

Both, a wet bench for smaller parts and portable for larger parts.

My absolute #1 suggestion:
Sample parts, lots and lots of sample parts.

Brake shoes / Calipers are excellent sources for material with lots of very tiny stress cracks which show up beautiful with wet flourescent that they wouldn't have seen with the portable yoke.

A plate with a V cut into the back is good for contracting Mag particle with Die penetrant showing how it travels through thin material.

Nothing gets the point of how it works as actually showing it.

:thanks:Hi,
I'm looking for forms to input data on magnetic particle test and penetrating liquid test results?
Thanks

Can anyone tell me what qualifications personnel have to have, to be able to perform magnetic particle inspection?

I understand that there are training courses that are available for personnel to take, but what I am looking for is something that says to what level you are required to be trained to be able to 1) train other personnel 2) perform the process. Maybe you are not required to have any "official training" and just be trained on the job at your job site?

Stijloor has provided a good source to help understand Level I and Level II in NDT (magnetic particle is just one testing type in NDT).

Trainers and certifiers of personnel who need to work while holding qualifications are usually Level III NDT certified.

You don't need ASNT certs to work in the US. There are CGSB, PCN, and CSWIP technicians working in the U.S. What matters is your employer's and customers' requirements. You may want to check out getting ASNT ACCP certification. This is a nationaly recognized program.
