The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (FoC) offers surface eddy current testing services to evaluate surface and subsurface flaws in conductive materials. Eddy current tests are vital to the daily functions of modern society. They’re used to inspect the equipment that enables modern water, fuel, and chemical processing systems. Our NDT experts offer world-class solutions for clients needing eddy current inspections.
What is Eddy Current Testing?
Eddy current testing is a widely used nondestructive testing method that uses electromagnetism to evaluate
The condition of conductive materials. During the testing process, technicians energize a specialized coil with an alternating current and then place it near the surface of a material. The proximity creates an alternating magnetic field, generating eddy currents in the test material. Technicians use a screen to observe disruptions in the eddy current test coil, which can be interpreted to identify surface and slightly subsurface flaws such as corrosion, cracks, volumetric wall loss, and percentage wall loss.
Eddy current testing is effective on a wide array of metals, including, but not limited to, aluminum, steel, titanium, and copper alloys. This makes the NDT method a popular choice in various industries, including:
- Aerospace
- Manufacturing
- Power Generation
