Mentor EM Eddy Current Flaw Detector

GE Mentor EM allows you to easily access on-device workflow applications that efficiently and accurately capture electromagnetic inspection data. Put expertise right in your hands.

Innovative Design

The all-new GE Mentor EM redefines eddy current inspection with its excellent signal-to-noise ratio and high-resolution display that’s easy to see in any light. It incorporates user-designed-application workflows, and onboard Wi-Fi capability so that inspectors of all levels can easily communicate with each other. Plus an off-the-shelf lithium-ion battery with battery energy content of less than 100Wh, means you can easily transport the Mentor EM on aircraft and helicopter.

Instant Collaboration

It’s not just about getting readings, it’s about getting accurate readings, every time, from every inspector. With Mentor EM, NDT experts connect wirelessly to their inspectors in the field to review real-time inspection results and support them as they gather data. They can even share screens instantly and add notes or comments in real time. Training is easy and inspectors can share screens to troubleshoot on the spot. No more hard copy service bulletins or chance of miscommunication. Everything they need will be right there in their hands—in real time.

A New Approach

Use Mentor EM to tailor on-device workflow applications that help your business run more smoothly and efficiently. Ensure everyone is following the exact same procedures, decrease the learning curve, and improve the consistency of testing by developing your own workflows for every test. The Mentor EM with Mentor Create—a new level of inspection technology.
