Visual testing (VT) is an NDO method in which the operator performs a test, with or without the use of tools\/borescope, by looking at the part. Visual testing can be used to find visible abnormalities, such as surface defects, sizing abnormalities, internal abnormalities (borescope) and\/or corrosion.<\/p>\n
Show more information<\/p> Before starting the test, the surface must be cleaned: grease, dirt and welding spatter should be removed.<\/p>\n Visual testing can be done at various distances relative to the object. If we look at the object from a greater distance, we speak of a general impression (review) and this gives a different result from a detailed study at a distance of less than 60 cm. In addition, there is the possibility to perform internal testing with a borescope.<\/p>\n For the visual assessment of constructions, components, parts and welding connections, various tools can be used, such as measuring tools, magnifiers, weld gauge and\/or additional lighting.<\/p>\n If the operator has detailed knowledge of the object, knows the manufacturing process and\/or is familiar with the conditions of use, this will have a positive effect on the visual test.<\/p>\n Surface testing of objects made of all possible materials.<\/p>\n When visually testing objects, we mainly search for the following deviations:<\/p>\n Testing has a large application area, but is often applied to the following products:<\/p>\n Hide information<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n The training courses are provided at different levels.

\nFull Training (VT2): 7 days including exam, certification process via Hob\u00e9on SKNDO<\/a>.
\nVisual testing of welds (VT2-W): 7 days including exam, certification process via Hob\u00e9on SKNDO<\/a>.<\/p>\n
\n7 days including exam, exam report only. Final certification will have to be done by the company through its own Written Practice.<\/p>\n
\nThe training meets and can be completed with an exam(-s) in accordance with the requirements of ISO 9712 or according to the requirements of the Written Practice of the own company (SNT-TC-1A). The exam consists of a theoretical (general and specific) part and a practical part. Both the training and the exam(-s) are tailored to the relevant industrial sectors (e.g.: Testing before and during use (including manufacturing), aviation or railway maintenance.)<\/p>\nCosts (Excluding VAT):<\/em><\/h3>\n

\n* The VTw-2 training is a Visual testing training with a limited scope. During this course, the emphasis is on the Visual testing of welds, both with DVI (Direct Visual Inspection) and RVI (Remote Visual Inspection).
\n** Requested prices include examination, certification examination according to Certifying body, and the course days are fully catered.
\nIf a training is completed in accordance with several certification schemes (for example: ISO 9712 and SNT-TC-1A), no additional fees will be charged, provided this concerns a standard exam. If customer-specific questions (for SNT-TC-1A) need to be prepared, \u20ac 170.00 extra per exam will be charged for this exam(-s).<\/em><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/p>\nTraining Information Level 3<\/em><\/h2>\n
