Zusammenfassung: | Eddy Current inspection is a technique used for detecting surface seams, cracks, pits, slivers and internal discontinuities in ferrous and non-ferrous wire. Different test sensor configurations including encircling coil and rotary probes can be used. When using encircling coil eddy current testing, the wire passes through the coil excited by an alternating current with one or more Drive signals. Rotary probe inspection can reliably detect surface seams and cracks using eddy currents which are induced by one or more probes traversing the surface of the material under test. Wire sizes can range from ultra-fine below .002” (.051mm), fine wire .002” (.051mm) to .005” (.127mm), standard wire .006” (.152mm) to .725” (18.42mm). Encircling coil testing can be used for the whole range whereas Rotary probe inspection can only be used above .200” (5.08mm). |
