Eddy current testing

Eddy current testing is a non-destructive method for testing metal surfaces for defects such as longitudinal and transverse cracks. The type of testing performed, using comprehensive through-type coils or rotating probes, depends on the type of defect. The test method can be optimally integrated in the production process.

Flux leakage testing

During leakage flux testing, the surface of components or semi-finished products is temporarily magnetized and scanned by contacting or contactless test heads. This non-destructive test method can detect longitudinal, transverse, and point defects.

Ultrasonic testing

Ultrasound testing is a non-destructive test method that can be used for detecting defects and irregularities in the material. This method also facilitates precision measurements of the wall thickness of a tube or the plate thickness.

Thermography

Thermography is increasingly gaining in importance and provides new approaches for test tasks which could not be solved at all until now or only to dissatisfying extent. By analyzing the thermal flow and/or heat conductivity of the test pieces, even the smallest defects in the material surface can be detected and visualized.

Magneto-inductive test method

The magnetic induction testing method is used in the automotive and aviation sectors as well as in the production of semi-finished products for the non-destructive testing of materials for their properties. Typical test tasks include hardness checks, material differentiation and sorting.

Magnetic field measurement

Magnetic field measurement is used for measuring disruptions in the Earth's magnetic field caused by ferromagnetic objects. This is suitable for detecting ferromagnetic metals and materials. The detection depth depends on the mass and magnetic properties of an item.
