Best Nondestructive Method - UV Light Inspection Highlighted With The Voyager C40 Borescope Our renowned Voyager C40 Borescope offers the advanced feature of non-destructive UV light inspection, enabling the detection of extremely fine cracks and defects that are otherwise invisible to the human eye. This is achieved through fluorescent penetrant inspection, a method where a penetrant is applied to the inspection surface, washed off, and followed by a developer application. The Voyager C40's UV light then reveals any remaining penetrant, highlighting imperfections in hard-to-reach areas and ensuri...Read More.
Nondestructive Testing of Polymer Aging Based on Room-Temperature PhosphorescencePolymeric room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials have attracted much attention due to their advantages of easy processing and excellent luminescent properties. However, it is still a challenge to obtain industrial production grade material through simple and green processing strategies. Herein, through the codoping strategy, different phosphors were embedded into nylon, a kind of polymer matrix, to obtain a series of highly efficient RTP materials without any organic solvents, for which the phosph...Read More.

The Unique Challenges for Quality Assurance in Additive ManufacturingWhen baking a cake, what you put in isn’t the same as what you get out. Biting into soft golden sponge doesn’t taste like egg or flour or sugar; it tastes like cake – or it should if you follow the recipe. Additive manufacturing is a little bit like that. You may know your ingredients at the start – the material, the design, the oven you’re using – but there’s chemistry and physics happening in between, a recipe, that causes the part to become something new. It depends heavily on precision. There’s variabil...Read More.
