13. Multichannel EC flaw detector
OKO-01
Mechanized
EC scanner (testing position) Automated
EC scanner (initial position
Testing area of pre-rim wheel part
Sensitivity is set up on artificial defect such as sawcut
on calibration block while the operation with
eddy current probe PN-1724 TD 01:
Length – 15mm; depth – 3mm; width – 0.1 mm.
(if surface smoothness is Rz40, 0.5 mm in depth crack
can be detected)

14.  Possibility of operation on unclean surface;
 operation with a lift-off between probe and
testing object - up to 6 mm;
 testing of rough surfaces with roughness of
up to Rz = 320;
 high sensitivity of probes;
 wide operating frequencies range;
 signals visualization in complex plane
enables an operator to differentiate
interfering factor from “useful” signal (signal
from the defect);
 possibility of digital signal processing;
 efficiency in information output (in real-time
scale);
 testing results and instrument setups saving.
Also, the possibility of their further processing
on PC;
 electronic reporting.
