NDTScan provides advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) solutions tailored for eddyfi technologies. Our services ensure accurate, compliant, and efficient diagnostics across all sectors, from aerospace to infrastructure. With cutting-edge equipment and over a decade of experience, we deliver certified inspections that minimise downtime and maximise safety. Trust NDTScan for reliable, data-driven reporting that enhances your decision-making and operational excellence.
NDTScan uses Eddyfi Technologies for advanced non-destructive testing applications requiring electromagnetic inspection, pulsed eddy current (PEC), phased array UT, and robotic-assisted scanning. These systems are deployed in the most demanding industrial settings — from refineries and pressure vessels to aerospace and nuclear installations — where surface and subsurface integrity must be validated to global standards.
Eddyfi’s precision, automation, and data-rich results make them the gold standard for high-spec inspection tasks.

Why We Use Eddyfi Technologies
Eddyfi systems enable cutting-edge inspection without disassembly, downtime, or surface preparation — delivering actionable defect intelligence at unmatched speed and resolution.
Other Equipment in Use
For general ultrasonic and visual inspections, we use Olympus or Sonatest. But when advanced NDT is needed, Eddyfi leads.
Elevating NDT Performance Through Eddyfi Technologies
NDTScan relies on Eddyfi Technologies to deliver the most advanced electromagnetic and ultrasonic testing solutions available today. These systems are not general-purpose instruments — they are engineered for high-risk, high-value, and highly regulated environments where traditional methods are no longer sufficient.
Whether we are inspecting corroded pipework under insulation, analysing fatigue cracking in aerospace alloys, or verifying weld integrity in nuclear-grade components, Eddyfi’s technology gives us the precision, repeatability, and data integrity that clients demand. Each tool integrates seamlessly into our advanced NDT workflows — helping us collect, analyse, and report results faster, safer, and with complete traceability.
We use Eddyfi’s solutions across a wide range of industries including oil and gas, marine, power generation, renewables, and defence — sectors where asset failure carries enormous financial, environmental, and safety consequences.
High-Resolution Defect Detection Without Surface Prep
A key advantage of Eddyfi Technologies is their ability to detect surface and sub-surface flaws without the need for paint removal, surface grinding, or disassembly. Tools like the Lyft PEC system and Sharck Probes allow NDTScan to detect corrosion, cracking, and thinning through coatings, insulation, or composite layers — dramatically reducing inspection time and disruption.
PEC (Pulsed Eddy Current) is particularly valuable in live sites where insulation cannot be removed for safety or access reasons. From insulated vessels in petrochemical plants to ageing risers on offshore rigs, Eddyfi’s Lyft system delivers real-time corrosion maps without hot work or mechanical removal of barriers. This supports faster, safer, and more frequent inspection cycles — enabling more agile asset management.
Sharck probes offer a similar advantage for surface-breaking cracks in weld toes, heat-affected zones, and highly stressed metallic structures. These electromagnetic probes can detect fatigue cracks, stress corrosion cracking (SCC), and pitting without coating removal — making them ideal for field inspections of pipelines, storage tanks, railways, and aerospace assemblies.
Advanced Imaging and Portable UT with Gekko
For weld inspection, flange assessments, and structural flaw detection, NDTScan deploys the M2M Gekko — Eddyfi’s flagship phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) system. This portable, field-rugged device delivers real-time, high-resolution imagery of internal features including laminations, voids, lack of fusion, and crack-like indications.
Its onboard processing and advanced Total Focusing Method (TFM) capabilities allow our technicians to visualise and characterise flaws in a way that basic UT cannot. This is particularly valuable in weld analysis, nozzle scanning, flange face evaluation, and multi-layered components where complex geometries demand more than simple amplitude response.
The Gekko’s integrated TOFD (Time of Flight Diffraction) tools allow us to size and position defects with high accuracy, supporting engineering critical assessments (ECA) and fitness-for-service decisions. With onboard Capture software, all data is code-compliant, traceable, and ready for audit or reporting.
Automation and Robotic Scanning with RMS2
For large-area corrosion mapping or vessel wall integrity checks, we deploy the Silverwing RMS2 scanner — a semi-automated tool that ensures fast, consistent data capture over wide surfaces. The RMS2 system uses rolling ultrasonic probes mounted on a magnetic crawler, allowing us to scan tanks, vessels, and structural steel with minimal manual input.
This tool increases scanning coverage, reduces fatigue-related operator error, and improves data repeatability across surveys. It’s particularly useful in storage tank base plate inspection, jacketed vessel mapping, and inspection of inaccessible high-level assets using rope access or scaffold.
RMS2 outputs are fed into Eddyfi’s Capture software, allowing for immediate data analysis, corrosion mapping, A-scan validation, and reporting. The combination of automation, speed, and visual clarity gives clients a precise understanding of where intervention is required — and where material condition remains within spec.
Code Compliance, Audit Readiness, and Data Integrity
All Eddyfi Technologies equipment used by NDTScan is operated under strict procedures aligned with international NDT codes and standards. Whether we’re working to ASME V, ISO 17640, BS EN 1714, or API 579, our systems produce repeatable, verifiable results ready for third-party review or regulatory submission.
Each inspection dataset is saved with metadata including technician ID, time/date stamps, calibration files, and site condition notes. This ensures traceability and supports full digital recordkeeping — essential for regulated sectors such as nuclear, aviation, and critical infrastructure.
Our in-house reporting templates include cross-sectional flaw imaging, corrosion mapping visuals, A-scan/B-scan files, and defect interpretation aligned with acceptance criteria. Where required, we offer independent validation or collaborative review with client engineers and safety managers.
Deployment Across High-Stakes Industries
NDTScan uses Eddyfi Technologies in field and facility settings across the UK and Europe, including:
-
Petrochemical and Refineries: PEC inspection of insulated lines, pipe racks, and risers
-
Power Generation (Nuclear, Hydro, Gas): Weld integrity assessments, turbine component checks
-
Aerospace and Defence: Crack detection in fatigue-prone structures, composite inspection
-
Marine and Offshore: Jacketed riser evaluation, ballast tank corrosion scanning
-
Transport Infrastructure: Rail weld inspection, bridge steel integrity surveys, fatigue analysis
Each site presents unique challenges — access, geometry, temperature, coatings — and Eddyfi’s technology allows us to meet them without compromise.
A Future-Proof Inspection Platform
NDTScan’s investment in Eddyfi Technologies ensures our advanced NDT offering remains future-proofed against regulatory shifts, material developments, and client expectations. These tools are constantly updated with new firmware, software modules, and probe compatibility — allowing us to scale capability without needing full system replacement.
This adaptability is vital in an industry where inspection demands evolve rapidly. New materials, stricter standards, and more complex structures mean generic tools can no longer deliver the insight needed to keep people safe and assets performing. Eddyfi’s commitment to R&D means we’re always ready with the right sensor, software, and workflow.
