EddyUSB

EddyUSB is a credit-card-sized dual frequency eddy current instrument for heat exchanger inspection or static/dynamic tests.

Shirt-Pocket NDT! This tiny USB powered instrument packs a punch. It can carry out static/dynamic eddy current tests as well as dual frequency heat exchanger or surface tests.

Overview

Technofour EddyUSB quite literally puts NDT in your shirt-pocket. This incredible credit-card sized feather-weight instrument interfaces with a Windows tablet or laptop via USB and offers a dazzling array of features.

EddyUSB is a versatile dual-channel / multi-frequency ultra-portable test solution for various applications such as aircraft inspection for cracks and corrosion damage, material sorting, bolt hole inspection, heat exchanger examination etc.

EddyUSB is capable of static as well as dynamic eddy current tests. A wide variety of probes and test coils can be used in conjunction with the instrument. You can use shielded or unshielded differential as well as absolute coils in bridge or send-receive configurations. Handheld rotating probes can be used to scan for surface or bolt-hole defects.
