What Is A Specific Industry Sector?
A specific industrial sector is a particular industry or technology where NDT practices are utilized requiring specific skill, knowledge, equipment or training.
The Industrial Sectors in which AINDT offers Certification are:

Eddy Current:
Multi-Sector
Aerospace

Magnetic Particle:
General Engineering (Level 1 Only)
Multi Sector
Aerospace
Welds
Underwater

Magnetic Flux Leakage:
Tank Bottom Testing

Dye Penetrant:
General Engineering (Level 1 Only)
Multi-Sector
Aerospace
Welds

Radiography:
Welds
Castings
Forgings

Ultrasonics:

Forgings
Nozzles
Nodes

What Is Multi-sector?
Multi-sector is a 40 hour materials engineering course required for the Multi-sector Industrial Sector in Penetrant and Magnetic Particle Level 2 and Eddy Current Level 2.

Completion of a Multi-Sector course is not compulsory. However most students without a formal background in materials engineering or metallurgy may find aspects of the industry specific exams (PT 2, MT 2 & ET 2) difficult without completion of the multi-sector course.

Multi-Sector (Materials Engineering)
Purpose:
The emphasis in this module is on the possibility of discontinuity formation in welds, castings and forgings and the NDT methods used to detect these discontinuities. The probable location and shape of discontinuities should be understood with a background knowledge of the various processes. It is not intended that students should become proficient in any of the manufacturing processes.

Course Hours:
40 Hours (5 days)

Specific:
Not Applicable

Prerequisite:
Nil

Exams:
Exams are held as part of MT2 or PT2 or ET2 as applicable.

What To Bring:
Sturdy Footwear (No open toed shoes)
Clothing Suitable for Practical Sessions (or Lab Coat)
