MsS Technology

    The MsS (magnetostrictive sensor) technology was developed by the Southwest Research Institute® (SwRI®), a Texas nonprofit corporation. GWA sells MsS Systems to NDT service companies, research institutes, and universities. We support these clients through consulting, supplying of accessories, personnel training, demonstrations, and on-site training and field testing services. Experience and knowledge obtained from client support and field testing are used for upgrading MsS technology through research and development in the Sensor Systems and NDE Department at SwRI®.
