Semi-automatic Rotary scanner for non-destructive Inspection of Welding circular seams of Pipelines using Ultrasound

摘要

The Invention relates to a semi-automatic Rotary scanner for non-destructive Inspection of Welding circular seams of Pipes, applying the technique Ultrasonic time-of-flight diffraction (TOFD) which is composed of two main parts: The circular Track, which involves The Pipe and a Carriage which is guided by the circular Track.The Implementation of Mechanical Device reduces the Ultrasonic TOFD Inspection time in at least 40% by circular Bead Weld INSPECTED, compared to manual inspection by conventional Ultrasound (pulse ECHO) or mechanical devices that use manual The Ultrasonic TOFD Technique for Pipeline Inspection
