Visual Testing Level 1+2

This training course can be booked for Level 1 and Level 2 either separately or in combination. In the Level 1 training course you will find out what optical radiation is and how it can be expediently used for fault detection, and shape or surface inspection. The operating techniques of visual testing (direct/indirect, local/overview) and the fundamentals of endoscopy are presented by means of examples of practical applications. In the Level 2 training course we deal with a standard list of fault categories and develop evaluation techniques for pipe mills, foundries and welding shops based on bodies of standards.
