The excellent strength-to-weight ratio of modern composite materials mean they are playing an increasing role in future aircraft construction, but they perform very differently to the metals traditionally used in the industry. Carbon fibre composites are anisotropic, with laminar construction and can fail suddenly without visible deterioration. Manufacturing defects, such as damaged or misaligned fibres, voids and delamination, can lead to reduced material performance. Integrating nondestructive evaluation (NDE) techniques into manufacturing processes provides important surety that each component meets required mechanical properties.

How Can You Use Eddy Current Non-destructive Testing for Tube Inspection?
ETher NDE, AZO Materials 2018

October 2018

Eddy current (ECT) non-destructive testing (NDT) can be used for inspecting tubes from the outer diameter (OD) generally during manufacture and from the inner diameter (ID) generally during in-service inspection, specifically for heat exchanger inspection.
