Eddy Current Testing vs. Magnetic Particle Testing: Why ECT May have an Advantage over MPT
Eddy current testing (ECT) vs. magnetic particle testing (MPT) is an apt comparison because these are two prominent nondestructive testing (NDT) techniques. While each technique has its advantages and disadvantages, the eddy current testing method retains the edge. MPT is a comprehensive solution in its own right, but it doesn’t have the same cutting-edge capabilities as its eddy current ...
