ECT System for Steel Pipe (Through type)
This ECT system, consisting of eddy current testing equipment, marking equipment and demagnetization equipment, automatically detects surface flaws on the steel pipe while pipe is being longitudinally transferred. After eddy current inspection, control number is marked on the good pipe by ink jet printer (IJP), and if a harmful flaw is detected, NG marking is done on the designated position of the pipe.
Features
- Excellent detecting accuracy is realized due to improvement of S/N by the effect of magnetic saturation device
- Fast inspection
- Marking control number or NG mark on the pipe (Option)
- In-line automatic ECT system to fit existing production line can be designed
