Ride 760: Kiji, flying

Pag 1

The MTB Emperor is taking part in the road racing Inter High!!

Pag 2

1: As expected!!

2: The groups from Kyushu, like Fukuoka or Kumamoto are in quiet places close to the course and the main office

3: and close to the water supplies too!!

4: Well, they're from here after all

5: On the other hand, we're towards the end where there's so much noise

6: And above everything, they clearly.... forgot

Pag 3

1: only our tent and they added it in a hurry, fou!!

Pag 4

1: Hmm, that could be

Is it because it's our debut? That's discrimination!!

2: It's handwritten!!

And it's even spelled wrong!!

3: In this kind of situations, you can't do anything even if you get so worked up about it, Ichifuji-kun

Isn't it enough that we have a roof?

Pag 5

2: Should I fix that writing with magic later?

3: Sonomoto-san!!

4: The place is a problem too!!

We're close to where they're holding the bicycles exhibition, so there's a lot of people passing by and they can see us since we have no tent

5: And when we're changing clothes? We use the bath towel like this, that's what they do on elementary schools' pools!! Fou!!

6: During MTB races you either do it in a car or in the wild

It's not like the management just conveniently forgot about us, either

Pag 6

1: But the truth is that we're being treated unequally....?

What about you, Kaida!? What do you think!?

Should we go tho the management tent and say a word to them now? Fou!!

3: I've never got any results in MTB and never participated in the Inter High, so for me it's sufficient enough that I'm able to participate in the road racing Inter High

4: Stuff like the tent aren't important

Ugh.....!! You're kidding, I have zero supporters in this situation!!

Pag 7

1: And isn't it nice to have good ventilation?

2: And also... if you have to say something to the management

Don't you think it would be more persuasive

5: Bikes have a center

I'm standing there

6: A center?

7: It's different depending on the model, but a little before the saddle there's the center point of the bike

8: The technique is that you feel for it, find your balance, and then you find your stability if you properly position your body

Pag 12

1: It's called “standing”

Ohhhh...!!

2: Furthermore, if you can put your center of gravity firmly there

4: you can also let go of your hands while standing still, yon

6: “Weight” is power, yon

Ehh?

Pag 14

1: When you stop thinking “that's obvious”, “I know that”

2: That's when it's over for you

3: Discovery lies in common sense

4: The essential thing when handling a bike.... remember

5: is the “load” and the “unloading” to get ahead of it!!

Pag 15

1: Maybe it's faster if I show you?

2: Ah, that's good

Look at that fence

3: The movement of the “load”, and the “unloading”... and....

Use the same method as when you jump to take a picture at the beach

5: I'll jump over that fence!!

Pag 16

1: No, isn't it better to stop!? Onii-chan!!

2: You'll run into it!!

Just look, boy

3: Hayaaaa

That guy

4: is a guy who jumps over common sense!!

Yaaaaa

Pag 17

2: Don't miss all the multiple techniques he uses in an instant!!

Fou!!

He looks so self-important

3: First, he moves his body back and so he unload the weight from the front wheel

6: “Unloading”!!

Pag 18

1: He's really going to cras-

He's not!!

2: Then, he lowers his body's center of gravity for a moment

3: Then he stretches!!

And pulls the frame!!

5: He's not high enough!!

This is the moment when you jump when taking pictures!!

6: Pull up

7: your knees

The technique of skillfully using your “load” to jump over obstacles

Pag 19

1: is called “bunny hop”!!

Pag 20

1: There are people who have mastered the technique and can do it, but it's at most 30cm.... but Kiji-san

2: can jump 80cm!!

3: Who's that guy!

Did you see that just now

4: He jumped that fence with a road racer

His bike floated!?

The fence!?

5: I've never seen something like that

The jerseys' of the guys who are with him say “Gunma”....!!

6: It was ama.... amazing....

That.... if I practice... will I be able to do it too one day?

Of course

Pag 21

1: If you fall a lot, and skin your knees a lot, and eat a lot....

2: Okay?

3: Well now, since we're participating in the Inter High, come see us!!

4: I'll cheer for you...!!

Thank you!

5: The cyclists will soon gather at the starting line!!

Dye Penetrant Inspection In Pune: A Comprehensive Guide

Introduction to Dye Penetrant Inspection

Dye Penetrant Inspection (DPI), also known as Liquid Penetrant Testing (LPT), is a widely used non-destructive testing (NDT) method that helps in detecting surface-breaking defects in non-porous materials. This technique is crucial in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing, where the integrity of materials and components is paramount.

The method's simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and high sensitivity make it an essential tool in the quality control processes of various industries. DPI is particularly effective for detecting fine cracks, porosity, and other discontinuities that might not be visible to the naked eye.

Principles of Dye Penetrant Inspection

The basic principle of DPI involves the application of a visible or fluorescent dye to the surface of the material under inspection. The dye penetrates any surface-breaking defects by capillary action. After a suitable dwell time, the excess dye is removed from the surface, and a developer is applied. The developer acts as a blotter, drawing the dye out of the defects to form an indication, which is then visible under suitable lighting conditions.

Step-by-Step Process of DPI

Surface Preparation:

The surface of the material to be inspected must be clean and free from contaminants such as oil, grease, or rust. Surface preparation is crucial as contaminants can block the dye from penetrating the defects.

Application of Penetrant:

The penetrant is applied to the surface of the material. It can be applied by brushing, spraying, or dipping, depending on the size and shape of the component.

Dwell Time:

The penetrant is allowed to dwell on the surface for a specific time, known as dwell time. This period allows the dye to penetrate any surface-breaking defects. The dwell time varies depending on the material, type of penetrant, and the size of the defects to be detected.

Excess Penetrant Removal:

After the dwell time, the excess penetrant is removed from the surface. Care must be taken to remove only the surface penetrant, leaving the penetrant that has entered the defects intact. This step is usually performed using a solvent or water rinse.

Application of Developer:

A developer is applied to the surface, which acts like a blotter, drawing out the penetrant trapped in defects. This helps in making the defect indications more visible.

Inspection:

The surface is inspected under suitable lighting conditions. For visible dye penetrants, white light is used, while ultraviolet (UV) light is used for fluorescent penetrants. The indications are then analyzed to determine the nature and extent of the defects.

Post-Cleaning:

After the inspection, the component is cleaned to remove any remaining penetrant and developer.

Types of Penetrants

Dye Penetrant Inspection utilizes different types of penetrants, which can be broadly categorized based on their properties:

Visible Dye Penetrants:

These penetrants are typically red and are visible under white light. They are easy to use and do not require special lighting for inspection. Visible dye penetrants are often used in field applications where UV light is not available.

Fluorescent Dye Penetrants:

These penetrants fluoresce under UV light, making defect indications highly visible in dark conditions. Fluorescent penetrants are more sensitive than visible dyes and are used in critical applications where the detection of minute defects is essential.

Water-Washable Penetrants:

These penetrants can be easily removed with a water wash, simplifying the excess penetrant removal step.

Solvent-Removable Penetrants:

These require a solvent for removing the excess penetrant, providing more control over the removal process and reducing the risk of over-cleaning.

Post-Emulsifiable Penetrants:

These penetrants require the application of an emulsifier to make the excess penetrant water-washable. This method offers high sensitivity and is used for detecting very fine defects.

Developers Used in DPI

The developer plays a crucial role in highlighting defects by drawing the penetrant out of them. There are several types of developers used in DPI:

Dry Powder Developer:

This is the simplest form of developer and is often used in conjunction with fluorescent penetrants. It is applied by dusting or spraying, and it provides a white contrasting background for the penetrant indications.

Aqueous Developer:

This is a suspension of developer particles in water. It is applied by spraying, dipping, or flooding the component. The water is then evaporated, leaving a uniform layer of developer on the surface.

Solvent-Based Developer:

This developer consists of developer particles suspended in a solvent. It is applied by spraying and is typically used with solvent-removable penetrants. The solvent evaporates, leaving a thin layer of developer on the surface.

Nonaqueous Wet Developer:

This developer is a suspension of developer particles in a volatile solvent. It is applied by spraying and is used for both visible and fluorescent penetrants. It provides a fast-drying, uniform coating that enhances the visibility of indications.

Applications of Dye Penetrant Inspection

Dye Penetrant Inspection is used across a wide range of industries due to its versatility and effectiveness in detecting surface-breaking defects. Some of the common applications include:

Aerospace Industry:

DPI is extensively used in the aerospace industry to inspect aircraft components such as turbine blades, landing gear, and fuselage sections. The detection of cracks, porosity, and other surface defects is crucial to ensure the safety and reliability of aircraft.

In the automotive industry, DPI is used to inspect engine components, transmission parts, and other critical assemblies. It helps in identifying defects that could lead to component failure and ensures the longevity and performance of vehicles.

Manufacturing Industry:

DPI is applied during the manufacturing process to ensure the quality of welds, castings, and forged components. It helps in detecting defects that could compromise the structural integrity of the finished product.

Power Generation:

Components used in power generation, such as turbines and pressure vessels, undergo DPI to detect surface cracks and other discontinuities that could lead to catastrophic failures.

Oil and Gas Industry:

DPI is used to inspect pipelines, storage tanks, and other critical infrastructure in the oil and gas industry. It helps in detecting leaks, cracks, and corrosion that could result in environmental hazards and financial losses.

Medical Devices:

In the medical device industry, DPI is used to inspect implants, surgical instruments, and other components to ensure they are free from defects that could harm patients.

Advantages of Dye Penetrant Inspection

Dye Penetrant Inspection offers several advantages, making it a preferred NDT method for detecting surface defects:

High Sensitivity:

DPI is highly sensitive to small surface-breaking defects, making it effective for detecting fine cracks, porosity, and other discontinuities.

Versatility:

DPI can be used on a wide range of materials, including metals, ceramics, and plastics, as long as they are non-porous.

Cost-Effective:

The equipment and materials required for DPI are relatively inexpensive compared to other NDT methods, making it a cost-effective solution for routine inspections.

Simplicity:

The DPI process is straightforward and does not require complex equipment or extensive operator training. This makes it easy to implement in various industries.

Portability:

DPI equipment is portable and can be used in field inspections, making it ideal for inspecting large or immovable components.

Immediate Results:

The results of DPI are immediate, allowing for quick decision-making and minimizing downtime in industrial processes.

Limitations of Dye Penetrant Inspection

Despite its advantages, Dye Penetrant Inspection has certain limitations that must be considered:

Surface-Breaking Defects Only:

DPI is limited to detecting defects that are open to the surface. It cannot detect subsurface defects, which may require other NDT methods such as ultrasonic testing or radiography.

Material Restrictions:

DPI is not suitable for inspecting porous materials, as the penetrant can enter the pores, leading to false indications or difficulty in removing the penetrant.

Surface Preparation:

The surface of the material must be thoroughly cleaned before applying the penetrant. Contaminants such as oil, grease, or rust can prevent the penetrant from entering defects, leading to missed indications.

Post-Cleaning Requirement:

After inspection, the component must be thoroughly cleaned to remove any residual penetrant and developer. Failure to do so can result in corrosion or other issues.

Operator Dependency:

The effectiveness of DPI relies heavily on the skill and experience of the operator. Proper training is essential to ensure accurate inspection results.

Environmental Considerations:

The use of certain penetrants and developers may raise environmental and safety concerns. Proper handling, disposal, and ventilation are necessary to mitigate these risks.
