Visual Inspection
Visual inspection is a fundamental NDT and quality control method, used for inspecting raw materials, maintaining facilities, and assessing in-service equipment. This method relies on human senses and may employ both non-specialised and specialised equipment under appropriate lighting conditions.
Course Content
- Visual testing is the most commonly used test method in industry.
- Because most test methods require that the operator look at the surface of the part being inspected, visual inspection is inherent in most of the other test methods.
- As the name implies, VT involves the visual observation of the surface of a test object to evaluate the presence of surface discontinuities.
- VT inspections may be by Direct Viewing, using line-of sight vision, or may be enhanced with the use of optical instruments such as magnifying glasses, mirrors, boroscopes, charge-coupled devices (CCDs) and computer-assisted viewing systems (Remote Viewing).
- Corrosion, misalignment of parts, physical damage and cracks are just some of the discontinuities that may be detected by visual examinations.
