Eddy Current Portables – Mentor EM

Powerful, portable electromagnetic inspection solutions

Inspect with rugged eddy current instruments that provide high and low-frequency electromagnetic inspections for defect detection, conductivity, and coating thickness measurement—including dual frequency and dynamic rotating drive capabilities. Portable and lightweight, our detectors offer full phase functionality with easy to read output for better signal interpretation.

With the Mentor EM or MiniDrive, you have access to leading eddy current technology that redefines electromagnetic testing. Using excellent signal-to-noise ratios and high-resolution displays, you can make every inspection faster, easier, and more reliable than ever before.

Put expertise right in your hands. The Waygate Technologies Krautkramer Mentor EM Eddy Current Tester, a Baker Hughes business product (formerly GE Inspection Technologies) allows you to easily access on-device workflow applications that efficiently guide the inspector while capturing electromagnetic (eddy current) inspection data. Real-time collaboration with remote experts allows fast and accurate indication confirmation. No more stacks of paperwork or questionable inspection calls, just easy and efficient nondestructive testing for weld, aerospace (including rotary) and general purpose inspections.

WELD SOLUTIONS

It’s time to make inspections more efficient.

The Waygate Mentor EM makes weld inspections more efficient. With three preloaded application workflows, the inspector can select single, dual, or dynamic gain control inspections for simultaneous crack detection and coating thickness measurements.

No matter what conditions you are in, the excellent signal-to-noise ratio in the new Waygate Krautkramer Mentor EM leads to accurate signal interpretation and quick decision making at every step of the process. A superior IP rating protects your Mentor EM from the harshest environments. And multiple alarm gates, which can be set to color or sound, warn of possible defects. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi enabled, Mentor EM eddy current signals can be remotely viewed on PC’s, tablets, and even iPhones.

From easy customization of the screen to optimizing the user interface to your inspection—make this tool, your tool.

AVAILABLE APPLICATIONS:

Weld Dual Frequency         Weld Single Frequency          Weld Two Inputs & Two Probes

AEROSPACE (ROTARY) SOLUTIONS

With more knowledge comes better decisions.

The Mentor EM makes crack detection faster and more efficient. View Timebase and Spot modes at the same time to detect both radial defect positioning to sizing. The excellent signal-to-noise ratio leads to better signal interpretation and more informed decision making every step of the way.

The Mentor EM MiniDrive Kit provides high torque for fastener hole scanning ensuring consistent rotational inspection speeds. Plus, Mentor EM is fully customizable to each inspector’s personal preferences.

The Mentor EM makes it easy to collaborate, allowing inspectors to instantly connect to other experts—all without ever leaving their inspection.

GENERAL PURPOSE SOLUTIONS

You may not be on every inspection, but your expertise will be.

It’s now easy for on-site inspectors to share information in real-time with the Mentor EM. Using Bluetooth and Wi-Fi data transmission, collaboration can happen remotely—whether you’re on the tarmac inspecting landing gear, hanging off an offshore platform inspecting welds, or checking automotive bearings in a production line.

This Eddy Current Tester also boasts an incredibly clean and sharp signal, allowing inspectors to find flaws other instruments wouldn’t be able to detect. And with downloadable on-device workflow applications, customizable interface and a bright, easy-to-read high-resolution display, finding surface or subsurface cracks is now easier than ever. Take inspections to a new level by collaborating and problem solving in real-time with the Mentor EM.
