3.18.1 EMATs Advantages Over Piezoelectric Transducers<br />

• Less prone to operator error<br />

• More repeatable test results<br />

• Less affected by many types of coatings<br />

• Useable at high temperatures<br />

• Can generate horizontal and vertical shear, Lamb, longitudinal, and<br />

Rayleigh waves<br />

• Automatically scans parts at high speeds<br />

• Useful in most piezoelectric applications such as flaw detection and weld<br />

inspection<br />

• A-, B, and C scans are possible<br />
