Peering into Pipes Non Destructive Inspection and the Steel Industry
In the fast-paced world of construction and manufacturing, ensuring material integrity and safety is paramount. One critical sector where this importance is magnified is the production of seamless steel pipes. These pipes are integral to industries like oil, gas, construction, and transport. The quality and reliability of these pipes are crucial, leading to the essential role of Non-destructive Testing (NDT) in the manufacturing process. In this blog, we'll explore what NDT is, the equipment used, and its significance in the seamless steel pipe industry.
