PipecareElectromagnetic Acoustic Transducer for Pipeline Inspection

SHARE
The Electromagnetic Acoustic Transducer (EMAT) is a non-destructive testing technology utilized for pipeline inspection. EMAT leverages electromagnetic mechanisms to generate and receive ultrasonic waves without the need for a coupling medium, making it suitable for challenging inspection scenarios. This technology is highly effective for detecting cracks, corrosion, and other inconsistencies in metal pipelines. PIPECARE Group, a global leader in in-line inspection and integrity services, employs EMAT to ensure accurate and reliable detection of defects. PIPECARE operates in over 83 countries and has a network of more than 15 strategically located offices worldwide, providing comprehensive inspection solutions across various industrial sectors.

Our EMAT inspection method is effectively creating and using ultrasound for the detection of cracks/stress corrosion cracking without the need for a liquid couplant. A secondary benefit of the EMAT technology is that it may detect disbanded coating.

This technology based on the generation of ultrasonic waves is expanding ultrasonic inspection methods from only liquid lines to gas pipelines. It has distinct advantages that make it the technique of choice for many applications with accurate 360-degree inspection and 100% line coverage.
