EDDY CURRENT TESTING

  • Who is ALFA CORE Saudi Arabia?

 

  • ALFA CORE Saudi Arabia, the parent company of RASIS Egypt, provides high-standard Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) services across the oil & gas, petrochemical, and refining industries in Egypt and the MENA region.

 

  • What standards do your inspection teams follow?

 

  • Our certified teams operate under ASNT and API standards, with proven expertise in both onshore and offshore inspections, including rope access solutions for high-elevation operations.

What are the applications of Eddy Current Testing (ECT)?

 Eddy Current Testing is a versatile method used for:

  • Detecting surface-breaking cracks on metal components
  • Inspecting metal tubes for internal or external discontinuities
  • Verifying heat treatment of metals
  • Measuring electrical conductivity and coating thickness
  • Evaluating thin metals and friction stir welds
  • Testing components such as gas turbine blades, cast iron bridges, and hurricane propeller hubs
  • Inspecting nozzle welds in nuclear reactors

What are the advantages of using Eddy Current Testing?

  • Highly sensitive to small surface and near-surface cracks
  • Capable of inspecting complex part geometries
  • Measures both electrical conductivity and coating thickness
  • Provides instant feedback with no need for couplants
  • Fully portable and efficient for field inspections

What techniques are used in Eddy Current Testing?

  • The following techniques are available depending on the inspection needs:

  • Single Probe Testing: Covers a wide range of frequencies

  • Array Scanning: Offers broader coverage and efficiency

  • Multi-Frequency Testing: Enhances defect characterization

  • Pulsed Eddy Current (PEC): For thicker materials or insulated surfaces

  • Remote Field Technique (RFT): Ideal for deep flaw detection in tubular products
