Abstract: A tool for eddy current inspection is configured to be used with an inspection device, and includes one or more guides, wherein the, or each, guide is a disc, which may be a plastic disc. Each disc includes an adhesive on one of its surfaces, the adhesive being a detachable adhesive, i.e., it is a weak adhesive that allows removal of the disc after inspection and re-use of the disc again at another fastener position.

Abstract: A reference block for ultrasonic shear waves calibration, comprising slots, wherein the reference block has at least two different thicknesses, each thickness comprising two cavities with at least one slot being provided at each cavity. Preferably, the reference block comprises a plurality of steps, each step defining a different thickness.

Abstract: An inspection tool for inspection of a hole of a metallic lug, including, a first arm, a second arm, a third arm, and a housing element, wherein the first arm, the third arm and the housing element may vary their position independently of each other in relation to the second arm. Also, the present invention discloses an inspection device for inspection of a metallic lug that comprises an inspection tool and a probe housed in the housing element, and a method for detecting cracks around metallic lug.

Abstract: An optical fiber connection device comprising a prism, first and second connection elements, inner and outer ferrules and an elastic element. The prism has an inner conduit ending in a first bore configured to receive an input optical fiber, and in a second bore configured to receive the first connection element, which, in turn, is configured to receive the second connection element. This second connection element is also configured to receive an output optical fiber. The conduit comprises two sections forming a ramp to lead the input optical fiber towards the fibers connection. The first connection element has an inner box, and the second connection element has an outer protrusion to provide a unique connecting position. The inner and outer ferrules, and the elastic element are retained in the second connection element.
