MIZ-21C

Save time and money

MIZ-21C is a fast, highly portable and cost-effective replacement for Liquid Penetrant Testing (PT) and Magnetic Particle Testing (MT) inspections. The surface array option can reduce inspection time by up to 95% versus pencil probes.

MIZ-21C’s intuitive touchscreen and simple, yet powerful embedded software gets users inspecting in no time, offering quick set-up and hassle-free operation.

Inspect more areas

The MIZ-21C is designed for user comfort. Its low weight of 1.2 kg (2.6 lbs) makes it ideal for one hand operation. The small form factor enables users to carry the MIZ-21C in any inspection environment, enabling the portability of surface eddy currents to a level never reached before.

Improve flaw detection

MIZ-21C features an industry-leading signal quality for an improved flaw detection capability. The signal-to-noise filter allows inspectors to isolate the target flaws like never seen before, for the strongest SNR possible.

Axial Encoding for Bolt Hole Inspection.

Important maintenance decisions often require more contextual information than the simple detection of a crack. Traditional rotating probes indicate only whether a crack is present; when combined with an axial encoder, bolt‑hole inspection is dramatically enhanced. The axial encoder enables speed‑independent, multi‑layer scans that precisely locate a flaw and identify the specific layer in which it resides. It also permits measurement and quantification of layer delamination. The axial‑encoder module is designed for compatibility with standard rotating probes.

Multi-Layer Corrosion Inspection.

Identifying corrosion is one of the most critical and complex aspects of airframe inspections. Changes in skin thickness as well as varying multi-layer structures usually make it difficult to recognize signals. The MIZ-21C has the power to penetrate thick sections. Exceptional signal-to-noise ratio helps inspectors distinguish even a small loss of material. Dual-frequency with mixing nearly eliminates the unwanted signals caused by varying air gaps between layers that can “mask” the signal of interest.

Detecting Cracks Near Fastener Holes.

Pencil probes are an option for detecting small cracks in close proximity to fastener holes. The inspector uses a known crack or notch standard to set up the MIZ-21C signal display. Then, while scanning the test piece, the inspector can estimate the depth and length of surface cracks by comparing the phase and amplitude of the generated eddy current signal to the standard’s signal. A fast, simple option is to use the available surface array capabilities of the MIZ-21C instrument and Surf-X Array probe. This approach can simplify the inspection and complete it in a fraction of the time compared to more traditional methods.

Conductivity and Coating Thickness Measurement.

Use digital conductivity measurements (resistivity) to characterize/sort materials. Directly measure the conductivity of metals and alloys, such as aluminum structures, using dedicated conductivity probes that have a broad operating frequency range. Or measure a nonconductive coating such as paint. The MIZ-21C offers a wide measurement range for both conductivity and thickness.
