• Flaw detection testing

Quickly evaluate and easily interpret circumferential cracks in difficult positions using full 3D imaging!

Heat exchangers are used to heat and cool various fluids across a wide range of industrial sectors. This is particularly important for industries such as power generation and petrochemicals, where equipment reliability is of utmost importance. For example, heat exchanger tubes made of austenitic stainless steel or Inconel are plagued by circumferential cracking that cannot be reliably detected by conventional single-coil eddy current testing (ECT) probes. This application note explores how innovative eddy current array (ECA) probe technology can address this challenge. *For more detailed information, please refer to the PDF document.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be carried out even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.

● The production time for cast prototypes can be shortened! Since model making is not required, the production time for prototypes, which previously took about a month, can be significantly reduced. ● Model costs can be reduced! By directly producing sand molds from 3D data, there is no need for model production costs. If changes to the model are necessary, they can be addressed by modifying the 3D data. ● Similar products with different shapes and dimensions can be prototyped simultaneously! Different products, such as similar shapes or varying dimensions, can be molded at the same time in one molding process. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.
