That's correct, but those magnetic particles follow the field lines that pass thru the part being inspected. If there is a crack in the part, AND if that part is made of a magnetic material, then the field lines will be distorted and concentrated at the edges of the crack and the magnetic particles will concentrate there. If the part is non-magnetic, then the the field lines don't even see it, so they won't be distorted and they can't show anything. To be fair, this is the way it would work if the field was DC, but I can imagine a different end result if the field was AC. An AC field would generate eddy currents in a non-magnetic material if it was a conductor. This might well create something visible at a crack, but a lot depends on the skin depth in the material and whether the field can penetrate enough that it can exit near a crack. Accepting the fact that I may have misunderstood something here I googled on magnaflux and found this FAQ at the Magnaflux Corp's web site: http://www.magnaflux.com/library/faq_mag.stm which starts with this comment in their FAQ: >What is Magnetic Particle Inspection? >A nondestructive test method which provides for the detection of linear, surface and near surface >discontinuities in ferromagnetic (material that can be magnetized) test materials. and this one: >What are the limitations of magnetic particle inspection? >Test material must be ferrous Perhaps you need to be more careful in your critism in the future, as jumping to conclusions like this tends to make you look foolish. - ----------------------------------------------- Jim Adney Madison, WI 53711 USA ----------------------------------------------- |
