eZ-NDT
Non-Destructive Test Software
eZ-NDT (non-destructive test) uses resonance
to identify part variations caused by process
inconsistencies and defects. Using eZ-NDT with
an IOtech 600 series device is a fast and
inexpensive method for performing 100%
inspection of production parts. Inspection parts
include, but are not limited to: powder metal,
ceramics, and composites.
An eZ-NDT system applies energy to target parts
and analyzes the resonant frequencies. The
system compares the results to the acoustic
signature of a known-good part.
Testing a part takes less than one second and
requires no special tooling, dyes, chemicals,
cleaning, magnetization, or expensive and time
consuming visual inspection equipment.
Features
• Provides inspection of metal, ceramic, and hard plastic parts
• Removes the ambiguity that is common in other inspection systems

• Tests parts in less than 1 second
• Quantifies and documents the first natural frequency for end user
comparison to final assembly resonant frequencies
• Time and Spectrum Display
• Easy-to-use graphical user interface provides fast setup
• Overlay good and bad baselines
• Investigation and Inspection Modes
