overview

This technology detects cracks that occur at the base of the fingers by moving a phased array ultrasonic flaw detector equipped with two probes over the top surface of a steel finger joint.
*This technology was jointly developed with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Power Inspection Co., Ltd.

point

Crack detection mechanism

  • The phased array ultrasonic flaw detector is equipped with two transducers, one on the finger side and one on the back side.
  • By simultaneously inspecting cracks from two directions in succession, even the smallest cracks are not overlooked.
  • By attaching a sled-type probe holder, flaws can be detected by smoothly crossing between the fingers.
  • The rack rails can be extended, allowing for any length of investigation. The rack rails are also magnetic, making on-site setup easy.
  • Water is used as the contact medium, and the site can be left quickly after measurement.
