Test Coil Arrangement<br />

Test coils can be categorized into three main mechanical groups: probe coils,<br />

bobbin coils and encircling coils.<br />

(Surface coil, internal bobbing coil, encircling coil)<br />

Probe Coils<br />

Surface coil, probe coil, flat coil or pancake coil are all common terms used to<br />

describe the same test coil type. Probe coils provide a convenient method of<br />

examining the surface of a test object. Figure 2.1 below illustrates a typical<br />

set of probe coils used for several surface scanning applications.<br />
