Professional Eddy Current Training

Mastering the science of electromagnetic testing

Non-destructive testing is only as effective as the technician operating the equipment. Our Eddy Current Training programs are designed to bridge the gap between complex electromagnetic theory and practical, real-world applications. Whether you are inspecting non-ferrous heat exchanger tubes or performing material sorting on aircraft components, our courses provide the technical foundation required to deliver accurate, repeatable results.

Comprehensive Technical Education

Specialized instruction for ECT, RFT, and NFT

Modern NDT requires a deep understanding of varied electromagnetic disciplines. Our training covers the full spectrum of the Ferroscope 308 EMI System’s capabilities, including Eddy Current Technology (ECT) for non-ferrous materials and Near-Field Technology (NFT) for enhanced tubing flaw detection. By participating in our Eddy Current Training, technicians learn to navigate the multi-channel, multi-frequency options of the Ferroscope, ensuring they can handle array applications and surface scanning with precision.

Instruction is led by industry veterans who understand the nuances of the Goldilocks Principle in probe selection and the intricacies of industry standards like API, ASTM, and DIN. From setting up a basic brass tube test to configuring advanced 16-coil array probes, our curriculum is designed to make your team self-sufficient and highly proficient in the field.
