Dear colleagues what is the applicable standard practice to assess casting grade or check the quality of casting? There are a number of NDT methods such as UT or RT among others. Since the parts are used in continuous production, test cost and duration are important considerations. What methods could more accurately detect defects such as porosity in cast parts while keeping costs and testing time reasonable?


Part info:
Part 1:cylinder OD=63mm , thk=5mm
There's a groove where minimum thk is 2 mm

Part 2: segment
Max. Thickness=18mm

Please refer to the attached drawings for more details.
Drawings of the parts are attached
