Eddy Current Testing
Caterpillar: Confidential Yellow
Probe Fit-up for Underplatform Crack Detection
• Eddy currents (opposed currents) are induced in the conductive
material by wire coils inside orange film
• Changes in the conductivity of the material due to defects is
interpreted as amplitude fluctuations in magnetic field
• Impedance changes measured in wire coils indicate defects
