EDSE - for ‘Boat Sampling’ Electric Discharge Sampling Equipment (EDSE) was developed in Japan by KMTL and further modified by ETD, building various types of mounting frames for cutting samples from difficult-to-reach places in metallic structures. EDSE has been used to aid in the condition/life and crack assessment of industrial components (pressure vessels, turbine rotors, valves, piping etc.) and other metallic structures (such as oil and gas platforms, theme parks etc.). Unlike the traditional mechanical ‘boat sampler’, with EDSE, the surface damage, if any, is of the level of only a few microns. With EDSE sampling the resulting cavity leaves rounded edges with ~4 mm radius and no stress concentrations. The process of cutting uses a consumable electrode that removes material via electric spark erosion, with clean water to remove debris and provide a cooling medium.
