Why Eddy Current NDT?
Eddy Current is ideally suited to Inspection Automation due to:
| - Non-contacting
- High Speed potentially up to 200ms-1
- Wide variety & geometry of probes
- Instant Coupling
- Good for surface defect detection
- No couplant required
- No effluent produced
- Ideal for rotationally symetrical components e.g. bearings, gudgeon pins, cylinder liners etc...
- Cost effective
|
Why Choose the EmBedEC?
The EmBedEC is ideal to integrate Eddy Current into automated inspection systems, for varied applications such as:
| - Surface breaking defects detection
- Sub-surface defects detection in non-ferrous materials
- Heat Treatment / Material property verification
- Sensing applications for verifying geometry such as the presence of threads, butt-weld detection, etc...
