Eddy Current Probe Set

Eddy Current Probe Sets are a type of testing equipment used in the field of Physical Properties Testing and Inspection. They are classified under the supply class Physical Properties Testing And Inspection and belong to the supply group Instruments And Laboratory Equipment.

Eddy Current Probe Sets are designed to detect and measure surface and near-surface defects in conductive materials. They work based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. When an alternating current is passed through a coil in the probe, it generates a magnetic field. This magnetic field induces eddy currents in the conductive material being tested. Any variations or disruptions in the eddy currents can indicate the presence of defects such as cracks, corrosion, or material inconsistencies.

Eddy Current Probe Sets typically consist of a probe or sensor, a cable for connecting the probe to the testing instrument, and various accessories such as calibration standards and reference materials. The probes can come in different shapes and sizes to accommodate different testing requirements and material types.

These probe sets are commonly used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, manufacturing, and non-destructive testing (NDT) laboratories. They are essential for quality control, material characterization, and inspection processes.

When selecting an Eddy Current Probe Set, it is important to consider factors such as the material being tested, the required sensitivity and resolution, the size and shape of the test area, and the specific defect types to be detected.

Overall, Eddy Current Probe Sets are valuable tools for non-destructive testing and inspection, allowing for efficient and accurate detection of surface and near-surface defects in conductive materials.
