Penetrating and Magnetic Liquids

Why choose Penetrating and Magnetic Liquids

Testing with penetrating liquids exploits the ability of particular liquids to penetrate the surface discontinuities of metallic and non-metallic materials. After applying the liquid, the excess is removed and what remains in the discontinuities is made visible with a revealing agent, highlighting any surface defects.
Magnetic particle (MT) inspection is specific for ferromagnetic materials and detects surface and sub-surface defects. The surface is magnetized and sprinkled with magnetic particles. In the presence of discontinuities, the magnetic flux disperses, attracting particles and making defects visible.
Penetrating liquids and magnetic liquids, contrasting or fluorescent, offer effective solutions for the detection of surface defects in metallic and non-metallic materials. ADG supplies high quality Cigiemme products for both techniques, including magnetic yokes, ensuring accurate and reliable results. Penetrating liquids are ideal for highlighting cracks, porosity and other surface discontinuities, while magnetic liquids allow the detection of superficial and sub-surface defects on ferromagnetic materials. Magnetic yokes are essential for creating the necessary magnetic field during inspections, improving the effectiveness of tests. Choosing Cigiemme products means opting for innovative solutions, easy to use and with superior performance. Trust ADG to improve the reliability of your quality control processes.
