Eddy current testing detects the smallest defects in various materials that can minimize downtime and decrease inspection costs. At CORE, our certified technicians use specialized eddy current testing equipment to provide a quick and accurate examination of:

• Heat exchanger tubing
• Other critical engineering components

CORE’s eddy current inspection offers a cost-effective technique to inspect metals for surface cracks, pitting, wall loss and other discontinuities.

Eddy current inspection can be used to find the finest surface and near surface flaws in any conductive material. Our highly trained eddy current specialists analyze results using advanced software to differentiate relevant and non-relevant indications.
