MagnaFORM™ Scanner: Faster Weld and Stress Corrosion Cracking Inspections
The MagnaFORM™ scanner is a fast and reliable way to reduce the turnaround time of weld inspection and stress corrosion cracking (SCC) inspections. The scanner is designed to help make your weld inspections faster with features including:
No more stripping and repainting: inspect through paint
Inspect the roughest welds and corroded surfaces with dynamic lift-off compensation
Save time by inspecting welds in a single pass
Effective solution for detecting stress corrosion cracking
Evaluate the depth of surface-breaking defects
Intuitive archiving and imaging
Save Time and Reduce Your Costs
While conventional weld and SCC inspection methods require painted surfaces to be stripped before inspection and then repainted after, the MagnaFORM eddy current array (ECA) solution enables you to inspect through paint. No more stripping and no more repainting.
The MagnaFORM scanner enables users to inspect a the entire weld surface in a single pass, helping reduce inspection time. Both linear and transverse indications are detected in the weld’s heat-affected zones (HAZ), toe, crown, and crevices.
Inspect the Roughest Welds and Corroded Surfaces
Designed to work on even the roughest welds and corroded areas, the dynamic lift-off compensation helps ensure the probe remains sensitive to surface-breaking defects, making the data easier to interpret. All of the channels perform real-time lift-off compensation to maintain equal sensitivity.
With the MagnaFORM scanner, inspectors can characterize SCC in heavily corroded areas. Manual or motorized scanners are available to simplify inspection and help ensure proper coverage.
