Single-tone and Polyharmonic Eddy Current Metal Detection and Non-Destructive Testing Education Software
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes the design of a measuring chain for polyharmonic metal detectors used for education in laboratory exercises at Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Department of Measurement. The Measuring chain is composed of DDS signal generator, Digitiser and PC with software programmed in Labview. Eddy current principles or more specifically eddy current metal detectors are an important part of nondestructive testing, instrumentations and measurement. A short introduction to the background and principles of eddy current metal detectors are presented. Next part of the article deals with a brief description of the most common methods, as well as, non-traditional polyharmonic methods for eddy current metal detection. The following part contains an implementation of the proposed algorithms in LabVIEW graphical programming language. Finally, the created program for education of eddy current metal detectors and results obtained on the metal detector ATMID are

In this paper, a non-destructive eddy current test system was designed to evaluate the surface hardness of the carbonitrided steel parts. For this purpose, various samples of the tappet were used after the surface hardening and grinding operations as control samples and, if necessary, were subjected to destructive and non-destructive tests. Microstructural studies were performed with a microsco...
متن کاملExperimental Investigation of Influence on Non-destructive Testing by Form of Eddy Current Sensor Probe
Eddy current testing is a kind of non-destructive testing (NDT) method based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. The probe is the key of eddy current non-destructive inspection and its design or combination of form will influence detectability. A complete set of eddy current testing system is designed for standard testing copper and defect copper. Under the same liftoff distance and ...
