AB There are a large number of special methods for exploring the internal condition of materials on the basis of eddy currents. A major use of this method can be seen in surface engineering, particularly in studying some state quantities of surface integrity. It is also an irreplaceable tool in surface engineering. The reason is that no other affordable method provides information on both the surface and the sub-surface regions, as the latter are difficult to reach by most other inspection methods. It must be noted that the sub-surface region is significant, and dictates, to a large extent, the behaviour of the overlying surface. This article explores another non-traditional application of eddy current inspection. The study presented here involves a use of this non-destructive testing method for carburizing verification and for detecting of amounts of retained austenite.
