Ultrasonic inspection system In-Line ERW

surfacefor NDT

The in-line electrical resistance weld (ERW) tube inspection system is a turnkey solution that uses phased array technology integrated into a fully automated testing system to meet stringent inspection requirements. Key benefits include: Automatically tracks the heat-affected zone (HAZ) Visualize the profile of welds in real time Minimize your dependency on operator skill with automatic calibration Detect defects at production speed with calibration check Reduce the risk of equipment damage with a pipe window detector Designed to be an easy-to-use solution for helping ensure the quality of ERW tubes post welding, annealing, and sizing, the system includes: Dedicated project management Instruments, probes, and mechanical equipment Water management system Software Commissioning, training, and after-sales support ERW Profile and Track Welds while Detecting Flaws A cylindrical phased array (PA) probe is located on each side of the tube’s weld to inspect in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions. To track welds and create a weld profile, a cylindrical PA probe located on the weld fires at zero degrees. Scarfing is automatically monitored, and the weld is profiled to create a side view for fast analysis. Wide coverage of the heat-affected zone (HAZ) Continuously monitor the weld profile and HAZ to perform analysis without waiting for the pipe to be cut Constant amplitude detection within the entire inspection area, even with mechanical movement Novel water wedge enables many degrees of freedom to accommodate pipe movement and provide excellent coupling
