You've heard the term Magnafluxed. To most, it means taking a part and checking it for cracks. Typically, the teardown guy brings a part to the "Mag" unit, wets it down with solution, presses the ...

A coated particle fuel for nuclear thermal propulsion applications, fabricated by TRISO-X LLC, has undergone testing in extreme conditions representing those experienced in space. An artists' concept ...

Content originally published on Parker Hannifin's blog. Cleanliness is a game of microns. Most OEMs consider any particle in their system measuring more than 500 microns (1/2 millimeter) unacceptable ...

This article outlines guidelines for the testing of high pressure gases utilized in cleanrooms according to the cleanliness limits stated in the FDA cGMP guidelines, the ISO 14644-1 cleanroom ...

Understanding the Requirements for Particle Monitoring in Pharmaceutical Cleanrooms begins with a grasp of the current regulations. The current international standards for defining contamination ...

As stated earlier, filtration is the mechanical or physical removal of solids from fluids (liquid or air). This is achieved when the liquid passes through a filter medium, which reduces the number of ...

Nondestructive testing (NDT) is the process of evaluating the quality and integrity of a manufactured part without harming its usability. There are six common NDT methods: visual testing, liquid ...

Non-destructive testing (NDT) technology provides services for remaining life assessment of industrial equipment and engineering structures. This technology has been applied in power generation, ...

Traditional particle counting only provides information on particle size. Conversely, dynamic image analysis provides detailed data on both shape and size. This allows specific particle types (e.g., ...

Syringe-specific constraints include needle-up particle detection, plunger obstruction of bottom illumination, reduced Tyndall utility, restricted fluid dynamics requiring higher spin speeds, and ...

Non-destructive testing methods are used in industry to evaluate the integrity and properties of material or components without causing damage to the tested object. Aside from industrial radiography, ...
