Rotational testing
 |
 Inspection of bright steel bar using
the EDDYCHEK® 4 and the large RS 130 rotating system
|
 |
Products tested: For all seamless
products that are round or off-round |
|
Production types: Straightening lines,
continuous drawing lines, offline final inspection |
|
Inspection: Integrated into production
line or used in final offline inspection |

| The rotating
system is designed specifically to identify longitudinal,
homogenous cracks and fissures found at the surface of the test
piece. It is used for products that have a tendency to show
longitudinal defects but do not have seam welds. Because the encircling
coil is ideal for finding short transverse defects, it is often
used in conjunction with the rotating system for a comprehensive
testing strategy. |
PRUFTECHNIK
offers a series of rotating systems to cover a wide range of tube
diameters. They are particularly easy to operate and maintain and
are extremely robust to withstand the industrial environment.
Precise test piece guidance and a lift-off compensation system
ensure accurate test results.
Eddy
current inspection equipment suited for use with the rotating
system includes the EDDYCHEK ®
LAB 2, EDDYCHEK® S, EDDYCHEK® 4 and the EDDYCHEK® 5, depending on the testing capabilities
required. |
