ViCTor 2.2D

Eddy Current Flaw Detector for Automated Inspections

ETher NDE introduces the ViCTor 2.2D, the user-friendly automated eddy current inspection system, designed with the Automation Engineer in mind. Based on our long standing range of core flaw detectors and software, NDT Inspectors will become quickly familiar with its user interface and with a variety of case configurations available, the ViCTor 2.2D offers maximum flexibility for each individual application.

Eddy Current is ideally suited to inspection automation particularly of so called rotationally symmetric components for the following reasons:

• Non-Contact
• High Speed (potentially up to 200ms-1)
• No coupling needed, no effluent produced
• Ideal for surface defect detection
• Wide geometry of probes available
• Cost effective inspection solution for rotationally symmetrical components e.g. Bearings, Gudgeon pins, Cylinder Liners etc.

“Guides” Feature
"Guides" allow the user to display a slide show that can be created easily with commonly used desktop software. The benefit of this feature is that instructions, tutorials and procedures for the inspection can be added to the AeroCheck+ very quickly and the NDT inspector can easily switch between the Inspection itself and the “Guides” while performing a live test.

Innovative “Loop” Feature
“Loop” is a convenient way of capturing a live repetitive signal and then adjusting the instrument settings especially Phase, Gain and Filters in order to simplify the task of optimizing the parameters.

Data Logging
Real time recording or signal data and “replay” on instruments & desktop PC, up to 164 seconds.

Trace
The trace function allows a reference waveform to be stored on the screen and appears along with the graticule behind the live spot. This allows the operator to readily compare the live data with the reference calibration.
