Magnetic Particle Inspection is used on welds, castings and forged ferro-magnetic materials in order to detect cracks and flaws on the surface or very near to the surface.
There are several types of electrical currents used in MPI. For a proper current to be selected one needs to consider the part geometry, material, the type of discontinuity you’re looking for and how far the magnetic field needs to penetrate into the part.
