Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) - The Basics
Magnetic particle inspection (MPI) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) method that is used primarily for detecting surface or near-surface defects in ferromagnetic materials.
The technique emerged first emerged in the 1920s and followed the recognition of X-ray technology as a viable testing method for inanimate materials.
