Eddy Current Inspection
More and more companies are opting to go in for Eddy current inspection due to the inherent benefit of the non-requirement of paint removal for inspection which is a drawback in the conventional NDT method of MPI. Eddy current eliminates the need for surface preparation and saves a lot of time in paint removal and re-application of paint post-inspection. Only at places, indications received prove-up is done with MPI.
One of the major advantages of eddy current as an NDT tool is the variety of inspections and measurements that can be performed. In the proper circumstances, eddy currents can be used for:
- Crack detection
- Material thickness measurements
- Coating thickness measurements
- Conductivity measurements for:
- Material identification
- Heat damage detection
- Case depth determination
- Heat treatment monitoring
Some of the advantages of Eddy current inspection include:
- Sensitive to small cracks and other defects
- Detects surface and near-surface defects
- Inspection gives immediate results
- Equipment is very portable
- The method can be used for much more than flaw detection
- Minimum part preparation is required
- The test probe does not need to contact the part
- Inspects complex shapes and sizes of conductive materials
Tubestar has onboard trained and qualified inspectors to carry out Eddy current inspection onshore and offshore. Tubestar uses the latest state-of-the-art Phasec-3D unit from GE for inspection.
Rope Access
A rope access system (initially developed from the Mountaineering techniques) is a form of work positioning system which permits access to difficult-to-reach locations without the use of Scaffolding, Cradles or Aerial platforms. Rope Access Technicians traverse on ropes to access work locations while suspended by their harnesses. This technique utilizes a backup fall arrest system which ensures redundancy. Rope access techniques have been used by the Industry for more than three decades and have an excellent safety track record.
Advantages :
- Time saving.
- Cost-effective.
- Safe.
- Highly adaptable.
Tubestar a front runner in the Rope Access field offers complete Inspection, Maintenance and Repair services utilizing IRATA qualified technicians. IRATA safety procedures are being strictly adhered to. Compliance with ISO 22846-2:2012 & EN standards.
