EDDY CURRENT TESTING FAQ
An eddy current is a current initiated in a conductor that reacts to a changing magnetic field. Eddy currents flow in closed loops within conductors, in planes perpendicular to the magnetic field, and take the form of eddies such as those that occur in whirlpools. They are used widely in several industries, including manufacturing and aerospace where eddy current inspections are required to reduce safety-related or quality-related problems, such as in thin metal areas.
