Fraunhofer Institute for Nondestructive Testing IZFPThe In-Service Inspection and Life-Cycle Management department develops nondestructive testing methods and processes designed to monitor and analyze the condition of structures over the course of their operational life. This work involves utilizing the entire spectrum of NDT processes, from ultrasound, electromagnetics and eddy current, to x-ray and thermography.
