Automated Magnetic Particle Inspection Systems (MPI Lines)
NEXSEN Automated Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) Lines are meticulously engineered to meet the high-volume, continuous quality control demands of mass-production facilities in the automotive, railway, aerospace, and heavy forging industries. Custom-designed to match your specific facility layout, these turnkey systems seamlessly combine component loading, multi-directional magnetization, fluorescent bath application, darkroom optical inspection, inline demagnetization, and sorting stations into a single automated workflow.

Smart Automation and Robotic Integration

To maximize cycle time efficiency and eliminate human-induced evaluation risks, our automated MPI solutions leverage high-end automation features:
  • Robotic Handling: Fully integrated industrial robotic arms for precision component picking, rotating, and defect-based sorting.
  • Conveyorized Pass-Through Layouts: Synchronized indexing or continuous conveyor belts for smooth, vibration-free part transition between testing zones.
  • Advanced Recipe Management: User-friendly PLC touchscreens allowing operators to switch mechanical and electrical test parameters with a single touch for different part geometries.

Key Technical & Design Advantages

  • Multi-Directional Magnetization: Simultaneous or sequential application of combinations like AC, DC, HWDC, and FWDC to capture multidirectional surface and sub-surface cracks in a single cycle.
  • Integrated Darkrooms & UV Inspection: Ergonomically designed inspection booths equipped with automated ventilation, curtain enclosures, and high-intensity overhead LED UV lamps optimized for fluorescent testing.
  • Inline Demagnetization Channels: High-duty pass-through demagnetization tunnels integrated directly post-inspection to fully neutralize residual magnetism below international thresholds.
  • Global Code Compliance: Designed in strict accordance with ASTM E1444, EN ISO 9934, Nadcap aerospace audit criteria, and major automotive manufacturing standards.

Complementary NDT Technologies & System Integrations

To build flawless quality control ecosystems within your manufacturing facilities, we engineer our automated magnetic testing lines to operate in sync with other non-destructive testing methodologies:
  • For Non-Magnetic Components: For surface crack detection on non-ferromagnetic materials (such as aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, etc.), you can explore our automated Liquid Penetrant Testing Benches.
  • For Structural and Alloy Verification: To implement automated, non-contact, and high-speed detection of heat treatment flaws, hardness variations, or material/alloy mix-ups, you can integrate our Eddy Current Material Sorting systems directly into your production lines.
  • For Visual Quality Control: For detailed interior inspection of casting cavities, narrow channels, and unreached internal surfaces, you can maximize your inspection quality using our high-resolution Industrial Videoscope and Boroskop solutions.

Critical Industrial Applications

  • Automotive Industry: 100% inline crack detection for crankshafts, camshafts, steering knuckles, connecting rods, and critical heavy-duty forgings.
  • Railway & Transportation: Automated structural inspection of heavy rolling stock wheelsets, train axles, and critical rail transport drivetrain components.
  • Aerospace & Defense: High-sensitivity, recorded testing workflows for critical jet engine turbine components and defense-grade parts requiring maximum safety.
