Frequently Asked Questions
Customer Statements: What customers are saying about OEM products (and the competition!)
Q:
Do OEM Products Offer More
Magntic Wall Loss Coverage than OTHER BRANDS?
A: YES. In fact, OEM inspection
products are the ONLY systems that offer 100% circumferential
coverage of the pipe OD and ID. Competitive systems typically
offer less than 25% coverage (but claim more!)
Q:
Who developed the first
magnetic wall loss function for sale ?
A: OEM designed the first magnetic
wall loss function in
1988-89 and debuted the system at the 1990 Offshore Technology Conference (OTC)
in Houston. It was so revolutionary, crowds of hundreds
gathered around the booth. This is why OEM systems are so much
more effective at finding wall loss defects using magnetics - we
invented the method and have more experience than any other company
in the marketplace. In fact, the current competitors in the
industry didn't even exist for many years afterwards!
