A jet engine disc spline area is being visually inspected with
the US-454 EddyView™
and a VisionProbe™. If
the video clip reveals a possible defect area, an eddy current probe
will be used to confirm the flaw. The VisionProbe™ is a fast way
to visually inspect hard to reach areas and the wide angle lens and
crystal clear color LCD screen allows technicians to view areas
close-up. Toggling between eddy current, video capture and strip
chart can be done at the click of a button. Reports can be stored,
printed and included in reports.

This special application
probe was designed to inspect stress cracks on connecting rod

Randy Wallbridge of Southeast Community College in Milford,
Nebraska is shown teaching a student about NDT with the US-454
EddyView™ from UniWest. "It's so easy to teach my
students with the EddyView™ because the instrument is so
intuitive. This photo shows us using the VisionProbe™
camera to look inside a cylinder. The image on the screen is a video
clip that visually shows a flaw. The student will then use eddy
current to confirm the flaw. It's important to introduce my students
to the newest technology so they'll be better prepared when they get
their first job."
