Case studies

A concrete case, close to your reality in the field, is better than a long speech…
Eddy current surface testing
As part of its manufacturing process, a manufacturer of bearings for the aerospace industry needs to check the integrity of the contact surfaces of the inner and outer rings of its bearings, to ensure that they are totally free of defects. The use of an IBG Eddy Current device and an ABB robot automates the process, for rings ranging from 8mm to 600mm in diameter.
By detecting any changes in the magnetic field induced in the part, the eddy current technique can be used to detect internal bushing defects.
