Pilot plant for the contactless detection of internal and surface flaws in hot steel products

Objective

Reliable, non-destructive testing to detect internal and surface flaws prior to further processing is crucial to ensuring the quality of wire products. Previous research work has led to the development of an electro-magnetic ultrasonic transducer system using guided waves. This technique is contactless and can inspect hot wire at high speeds for internal and surface flaws. It has a greater detection capacity than conventional eddy current and ultrasonic systems. A pilot plant will be constructed under this project to test in-process conditions.
