The basic equipment for eddy current testing includes:
- Alternating current source: The source of the alternating current
- Coil of wire: Connected to the alternating current source
- Voltmeter: Measures the voltage change across the coil
- Ammeter: Measures the current change in the circuit
Eddy current testing is a non-destructive testing (NDT) method that uses electromagnetic induction to detect flaws in conductive materials. The most important piece of equipment for eddy current testing is the probe, which is made of coils of wire that generate a magnetic field when an alternating current passes through them.Eddy current testing can be used for a variety of applications, including: Detecting cracks and other discontinuities, Measuring the thickness of metal and coatings, Detecting corrosion and erosion, and Measuring electrical conductivity and magnetic permeability.
