چکیده
Multi-information fusion is the trend of NDT equipments. This paper describes the principle, configuration and application of EMS-2003 —– a new device combining metal magnetic memory, eddy current and magnetic flux leakage testing techniques. By using the three complementary NDT techniques, we are able to make complete testing and analysis on early damages and established defects in in-service parts.

Evaluation of eddy current and magnetic techniques for inspecting rebars in bridge barrier rails
This paper reports on a feasibility study of using eddy current (EC) and magnetic flux leakage (MFL) methods to detect corrosion damage in rebars that anchor concrete barrier rails to the road deck of bridge structures. EC and MFL measurements were carried out on standalone rebars with and without artificial defects of 25% and 50% material loss, using a commercial EC-based rebar locator and a M...
متن کاملThree modeling methods in MFL testing
Magnetic flux leakage (MFL) measurement is one of the most widely used non-destructive testing techniques for in-service inspection of oil and gas pipelines. Three methods, Numerical computation, theory analytical and experiment, have been used to model the MFL testing and have been investigated separately before. In this article, we introduced a MFL analytical model based on dipole magnetic ch...

At BAM, the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing, a group of scientists develops NDTapplications based on GMR sensor technology. In particular, the knowledge gained in the field of automated testing systems based on the magnetic flux leakage (MFL) were combined with GMR sensors to achieve high resolution testing of ferromagnetic materials. In cooperation with Europe’s second lar...
متن کاملA Lift-Off-Tolerant Magnetic Flux Leakage Testing Method for Drill Pipes at Wellhead
To meet the great needs for MFL (magnetic flux leakage) inspection of drill pipes at wellheads, a lift-off-tolerant MFL testing method is proposed and investigated in this paper. Firstly, a Helmholtz coil magnetization method and the whole MFL testing scheme are proposed. Then, based on the magnetic field focusing effect of ferrite cores, a lift-off-tolerant MFL sensor is developed and tested. ...
متن کاملTheory and Application of Magnetic Flux Leakage Pipeline Detection
Magnetic flux leakage (MFL) detection is one of the most popular methods of pipeline inspection. It is a nondestructive testing technique which uses magnetic sensitive sensors to detect the magnetic leakage field of defects on both the internal and external surfaces of pipelines. This paper introduces the main principles, measurement and processing of MFL data. As the key point of a quantitativ...
