Visual Testing Level 2 Constantia Kloof

Visual Testing (VT), also known as visual inspection, is the foundation of Non-Destructive Testing. This essential method involves the direct visual examination of objects, parts, or components to identify surface irregularities and potential defects. It’s useful in gaining a strong understanding of foundational inspection principles applicable across various NDT methods and provides a solid foundation for further exploration of more advanced NDT methods.

What you’ll learn in a Visual Testing training course:

• Principles of Visual Inspection: Learn the key aspects of conducting thorough and systematic visual examinations.
• Lighting Techniques: Understand the importance of proper illumination and how to utilise different lighting methods for optimal inspection results.
• Surface Discontinuity Recognition: Develop the ability to identify various types of surface defects and discontinuities.
• Visual Aids and Equipment: Explore the proper use of tools and equipment to enhance visual inspections, such as mirrors, magnifying glasses, and borescopes.
