Originally formed as R-CON International in 1986, EMTEK produced client-designed components for the nuclear and aerospace industries and its own product line of specialized and patented high pressure, high temperature connectors (the Arc Connector or R-Con). In 1987, EMTEK began building ultrasonic in-line pipeline inspection (ILI) tools for hazardous liquid and natural gas pipelines. By 1988 it had added High Resolution Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) inspection and it has contributed innovations to the field dating back to that time. EMTEK sold its pipeline inspection systems in 1992 and did not participate in the field for several years. However, in 2002 the DOT enacted new and more stringent rules and regulations relating to the safe operation of pipelines. EMTEK took the opportunity to introduce new capabilities consistent with this challenge through the design of a completely new MFL ILI tool. EMTEK has now completed the design of a modular family of ILI tools, has built tools to inspect 8-inch, 12-inch and 24-inch diameter pipeline, has a 10-inch tool nearing completion and other tools on the way. EMTEK has been a pioneer in the technological advancement of ILI tools. In its MFL tools, it introduced the use of Hall effect sensors, solid state memory and multi-axis sensors. More recently, it has implemented Extra High Resolution (XHR) principles and data analysis. It samples the magnetic leakage field from two to four times as frequently as most other tools. It has strengthened the definition of XHR data to include data reduction parameters consistent with this higher accuracy in field mapping. It has introduced new proprietary technology that provides three dimensional data analysis without the use of multi-axis sensors. It leads the field of ILI technology development with five patents pending and two more to be introduced soon. For the future, EMTEK has unique and proprietary concepts for electromagnetic acoustic guided wave propagation applications to ILI inspection. It has two additional patents pending in this EMAT field. In addition to its work in the petroleum industry, EMTEK produces specialized equipment for the inspection of large diameter water lines. These tools are available for lines from 56'' diameter up to 78'' diameter and can be used in mortar-lined pipe. These specialized inspection tools are the largest diameter MFL tools in the world.
