Eddy Current Testing (ECT) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) method that utilizes electromagnetic induction to detect surface and near-surface flaws in conductive materials. It is widely used in various industries, including aerospace, power generation, and manufacturing, due to its accuracy, efficiency, and versatility.
Key Features of Eddy Current Testing
Non-Destructive: The process leaves the material intact, making it ideal for quality control and preventive maintenance.
High Sensitivity: Capable of detecting surface cracks and flaws as small as 0.1 mm.
Versatility: Effective on a wide range of conductive materials such as aluminum, copper, and steel.
Fast and Reliable: Offers immediate results with minimal preparation, reducing downtime.
Depth Measurement: Provides accurate readings of defect depth in the material.
Portable Equipment: Modern ECT devices are compact and easy to transport for on-site inspections.
