What is the ideal temperature range for conducting MPI?

The ideal temperature range for conducting Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) is between 15°C to 40°C. This range is crucial because it helps ensure that the magnetic particles adhere properly to the surface of the material being inspected and that the magnetic field is effective in revealing any discontinuities.

Within this temperature range, the viscosity of the magnetic particle suspension is optimal, allowing for better coverage of the inspected area. Additionally, operating outside of this temperature range can lead to complications such as reduced magnetic particle effectiveness or unintended effects on the material being tested, which can hinder the inspection process and reduce the reliability of the results. Therefore, maintaining the ambient conditions within this specified range during MPI is vital for achieving accurate and reliable inspection outcomes.
