A nondestructive testing technology called eddy current array (ECA) is capable of driving numerous eddy current coils that are positioned next to one another in the same probe assembly. In the probe, ...
Original experiments with the eddy-current array used a flexible printed circuit array with 64 coil pairs, each one 4 mm in diameter. The engineering prototype board expanded the size to 256 coil ...
Eddy current testing has been used for at least 50 years to inspect conductive parts for surface imperfections such as cracks or scratches. Fundamentally, the technique is comparative—it only ...
