Visual inspection service entails a systematic examination of materials, components, or products using the naked eye or with the aid of optical instruments to assess their physical condition, quality, and conformity to standards or specifications. It is a fundamental non-destructive testing (NDT) method employed across various industries to detect surface defects, irregularities, discontinuities, or other visible indications that may affect the functionality, performance, or safety of the inspected items. Visual inspection typically involves a trained inspector visually examining the object under well-lit conditions, looking for anomalies such as cracks, scratches, corrosion, weld defects, dimensional variations, or improper assembly. In some cases, magnification tools, borescopes, or other optical instruments may be used to enhance inspection accuracy and reach inaccessible areas. Visual inspection is a versatile and cost-effective method suitable for both in-process and post-production inspection tasks, contributing to quality assurance, defect prevention, and regulatory compliance across industries such as manufacturing, construction, aerospace, automotive, electronics, and healthcare.
