Jentek Sensors Inc

JENTEK Sensors Inc makes eddy current testing systems. Eddy current testing finds flaws in metal parts without damaging them. The contact page gives an address in Marlborough, Massachusetts, and the site describes the company as an eddy current array solutions provider.

The company offers three main product lines. The jET is a small handheld unit that weighs less than one pound, and it can be fitted to a robot arm or a custom scanner. The jETi is an integrated portable system with a built-in Windows computer and touch screen. The GS9000 is a multi-channel system offered with 19, 39 or 79 channels.

All three systems use MWM-Array eddy current sensors. The site says they can take measurements from 2.5 Hz to 20 MHz, depending on the material. The systems run JENTEK's GridStation software. The company also offers automated solutions, such as an internal scanner for tubes and pipes that uses a 39-channel GS9000.

The site says aircraft engine inspection is a major use. It states that JENTEK has provided automated solutions for aircraft engine part inspections, including holes, disk slots, fir trees and blades. Other uses listed include coating characterization, weld inspection and repair inspection.

The company says its products are standard practice for critical component inspections in the U.S. military and commercial OEM sectors. The about page says customers include Fortune 500 companies and the U.S. Air Force, Navy and Army. It also says the systems have helped customers achieve documented safety improvements.

JENTEK was founded in 1992 to improve inspection and life management of high-value assets, such as pipelines, aircraft, rotorcraft, power plants and spacecraft. The company now focuses on two areas: non-contact sensing for industrial processes, and portable or automated nondestructive evaluation systems. The about page says several engineers hold PhDs from MIT.

Visitors can request help through an inquiry form on the contact page. The form asks for the application, the materials to be tested and how the part is inspected today. The site also links to a LinkedIn page for the company.
