How a forward-thinking innovation culture has put Eddyfi Technologies at the cutting edge of market innovation with Floormap®X, the latest solution for storage tank inspection?
Eddyfi Technologies has what Stuart Kenny, General Manager of the Silverwing product line, describes as " a great culture of great people working together brilliantly, operating in six different key locations around the world, each with its own area of expertise ". Matthew Boat, Product Manager, agrees, adding that " it's a fast-moving, progressive company with big ideas - that's why the systems we make are so exciting. And no matter where you work in the world, the big boss knows your name and you always feel valued. ". Eddyfi Technologies has grown rapidly (and continues to do so). As part of this expansion, it acquired Swansea-based Silverwing six years ago. " Silverwing has a great traditional name that's synonymous with quality. Then Eddyfi Technologies brought with it extensive R&D resources and a vast international sales force. "says Stuart. Eddyfi's Floormap technology was developed thirty years ago, and this latest incarnation, Floormap®X, has been in development for three years. Those three years have been a labor of love, says Stuart: " It may seem like a long time, but it's really not a chore when you're passionate about what you do. We love this industry ".
The all-new multi-technology solution for storage tank bottom inspection
Le Floormap®X from Eddyfi Technologies is the only multi-element MFL (magnetic flux leakage) tank bottom scanner with unprecedented efficiency and the ability to tackle almost any tank. In fact, it's the number-one solution in its class for providing accurate tank-bottom mapping and non-mapping reports in the most efficient way. Simply put, it finds small defects and enables immediate action, thus extending inspection intervals. According to Eddyfi, Floormap®X's improved detection and resolution capabilities combine with its overall efficiency and advances in coverage to complement advances in ergonomics, battery management, integrated lighting and raw magnetic power to help many customers worldwide convert to the new model and provide a modern, sophisticated inspection tool for the inspection of all storage tanks. Floormap®X offers unrivalled detection probability - even in the critical zone - and can handle thick plates and coatings with flying colors. Indeed, it incorporates Eddyfi's patented STARS technology, which enables top-to-bottom corrosion discrimination, and it can be used in either full floor mapping mode or Freescan™ mode. All these factors combine to make this system a tool that dramatically increases the efficiency of tank bottom inspection.
