NDT in Aerospace: Advancements in NDT Methods

As the Industry will Continue to Grow, so will Advancements in NDT Methods.

July 15, 2021

The aerospace industry uses nondestructive testing (NDT) methods quite extensively. The structural integrity and safety of nearly all components, especially the most critical ones, needs to be validated and NDT plays a major role. NDT is required in virtually all areas of newly manufactured, serviced, repaired, or overhauled inspections.
