Our system is specially designed for the inspection of thin, flexible flat aluminum tubes, which are prone to significant lateral movement during production, affecting test accuracy and causing rapid probe wear. The innovative adaptive probe holder synchronizes with the tube's movement, eliminating lateral interference signals and greatly extending probe life.
Workflow Highlights:
- The fully automatic pneumatic marking device applies quick-drying paint marks with adjustable, user-friendly support for flexible positioning.
- Suitable for both offline and online testing of various metal bars, seamless/welded tubes, and strips (including round, hexagonal, rectangular, and square cross-sections), detecting surface, near-surface, and internal defects.
- Standard testing uses external-through probes for straight-line inspection; for large-diameter high-frequency welded tubes, saddle-type magnetic saturators and probes ensure reliable weld quality assessment.
- For large or complex-shaped parts (e.g., crankshafts, turbine blades), point probes with manual or automated scanning enable thorough, point-by-point inspection.
- The system supports a variety of auxiliary devices, allowing flexible adaptation to different production environments, including lightweight portable solutions for mobile sites or manual operation.
Advantages:
- Eliminates lateral movement interference for accurate results
- Extends probe lifespan
- Flexible, user-friendly marking and adjustment
- Versatile for a wide range of metal shapes and defect types
- Easily integrates with existing production setups
This solution delivers precise, efficient, and reliable eddy current inspection for challenging flat aluminum tube applications and beyond.
