Dublin, Oct. 24, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/dgnz4z/global)
has announced the addition of the "Global
Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) Equipment Market - By Technology
(Ultrasonic, Eddy Current, Electromagnetic, Radiography,
Thermography), Verticals (Manufacturing, Petrochemical, Aerospace,
Automotive, Power Generation) & Geography (2013 - 2018)"
report to their offering.
Non-destructive testing relates to the examination of materials for
flaws without harming the object being tested. Non- destructive
testing provides a cost effective means of testing while protecting
the object's usability for its designed purpose. The technique can
be applied on a sampling basis for individual investigation or may
be used for 100% checking of material in a production quality
control system.
There are some existing non-destructive
testing technologies such as ultrasonic testing, radiography
testing and eddy current testing which capture most of the market.
Ultrasonic testing has been the first choice of the end users for
flaw determination. On the other side the emergence of next
generation technologies like phased array ultrasonic, X-Ray
computed tomography and computed radiography will affect the
traditional technologies in the days to come.
This report describes the traditional technologies as well as
emerging technologies for contact and non-contact methods for
testing the flaws of objects. Non-destructive testing market is in
its maturity period however some technologies of it are still in
their growth stage. Technologies are integrating with asset
management, integrity solution and decision making tools with the
advancement in sensors, semiconductor and automation.
The major drivers for non-contact equipment market are strong
government regulations, user friendly software, continuous
advancement in electronics, automation and robotics and assured
return on investment. There is a lot of opportunity for existing
players as well as for new entrants to innovate and differentiate
the products in price and design. The infrastructure sector is
rapidly growing all over the globe; especially in BRIC (Brazil,
India, Russia and China). This creates an opportunity for the
automation provider companies in the NDT market.
