Method for eddy current testing

摘要

A method for testing the integrity of a component in a measurement area of the component, using an instrument having a flexible part and a rigid end part following the flexible part and carrying an eddy current probe. The method comprises a selection step in which a template corresponding to the measurement area is selected, a shaping step in which the flexible part is shaped against the template thus selected, a positioning step, in which the instrument thus shaped is positioned so that the eddy current probe is placed in the measurement area, and a measurement step, in which a measurement is made via the eddy current probe which has been thus positioned.

1. A method for testing the integrity of a component in a measurement area of the component, using an instrument having a flexible part and a rigid end part following the flexible part and carrying an eddy current probe, the method comprising the steps:
selecting a template corresponding to said measurement area, shaping the flexible part against the template thus selected, positioning the instrument thus shaped so that the eddy current probe is placed in said measurement area, and measuring an eddy current via the eddy current probe which has been thus positioned.
