Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC), a pervasive threat to pipeline integrity, results from the synergistic effect of stress and corrosive environments, particularly evident in external carbon steel pipelines exposed to corrosive soil. TechCorr addresses this critical issue through the application of Surface Eddy Current (SEC) technology, specifically tailored for SCC detection in vital infrastructure components such as high-pressure gas pipes, vessels, tanks, and pipelines.

The Spyne, our advanced SEC screening tool, revolutionizes SCC assessment by overcoming the limitations of traditional non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques. Its adaptability, accommodating a diverse range of flexible probes for both ferritic and non-ferritic alloys, ensures comprehensive inspection coverage. Operating with a detection range from 150 millimeters (6 inches) to flat surfaces, the Spyne facilitates early detection and sizing of SCC colonies, mitigating the risk of catastrophic failures.

This cutting-edge solution offers significant advantages over conventional methods like magnetic-particle inspection (MPI) and liquid-penetrant inspection (LPI), boasting a higher Probability of Detection (PoD) while eliminating drawbacks such as surface preparation, manual length sizing, and operator-dependence. Leveraging the principles of electromagnetism, SEC technology enables TechCorr to deliver precise and reliable inspections for crack detection, material thickness measurements, conductivity assessments, and more, ensuring the integrity and safety of critical infrastructure assets.
