BINDT launches new NDT Reference app
14/02/2013
The British Institute of Non-Destructive Testing (BINDT) has introduced a new NDT Reference app to complement its recently-launched NDT News app.The NDT Reference app comprises two sections, both aimed at providing
useful reference information for the busy NDT technician on the move. The first part is based on the Institute’s best-selling book: ‘Mathematics and Formulae in NDT’, edited by the late Dr Ron Halmshaw. Prepared by members of the BINDT Technical Committee, this app is intended to help NDT practitioners and students to understand and use the formulae that are employed in NDT. It contains basic useful formulae used in radiography and radiology, ultrasonics, magnetic particle testing and eddy current testing. The ultrasonics section includes some values for ultrasonic velocities for a number of materials.
The second section takes information from BINDT’s well-known and valuable Method Selector Charts and presents the relative prospects for effective inspection when using different inspection methods for different inspection tasks with various materials.
Like the NDT News app launched last year, the NDT Reference app may be downloaded free of charge from the App Store for iPhone and iPad and from the Google Play store for Android mobile devices.
So now NDT practitioners can not only keep up-to-date with the latest news and job vacancies using the NDT News app, they can also access valuable tools to help them carry out their work quicker, better and more effectively using the NDT Reference app from BINDT.BINDT anticipates further additions to its app range in the coming months, including a PCN certificate verification tool, which is currently under development.
