This paper proposes a method to detect conductor defects in the field of modern non-destructive testing technology. A self-magnetic field induced by flowing current in the conductor is used in the detection technique, and a three-dimensional micro-displacement stage platform is used to scan the sample surface to obtain the self-magnetic field mapping of the whole sample. The subsequent data processing and imaging technology of the detection signal is also developed. To achieve precise positioning of the triaxial directions, an STM32 microcontroller (MCU) is used as the central processor to design the displacement control system, which communicates with a PC computer through the MCU system. The experimental results demonstrate that the stepper motor driving the magnetic sensor could run uniformly and that the proposed system has the advantages of smooth motion, low noise and high precision. As a consequence, the micro-displacement control system can be used to get a clear mapping of the defects in the sample.

Abstract On the basis of the metal-magnetic-memory (MMM) effect, a three-dimensional high-precision non-contact pipeline magnetism-based stress inspection (PMSI) technology is developed for trenchless inspection of buried pipeline defects. This technology is a new non-destructive testing technology, which can find the possible stress concentration area (SCA) along the buried gas transmission pipeline. Hence, we could further judge according to the testing data that the stress concentration is caused by the overpressure which results from whether the pipeline external load at the potential landslide of the soil or serious metal loss such as corrosion defects. The stress inspection method determines the relative risk of defects by directly quantifying the change level of stress, rather than calculating the geometric parameters (length, width, height) of defects. The PMSI was carried out on a 10.3 km LNG pipeline and two level-II SCAs were found. A comprehensive index F was defined to evaluate the severity quantitatively and judge the grade of the defect status as well as the sensitive. Thus, the relative stress and thereby the safety state of the pipeline are judged, and then the precise position of the relatively serious section on the pipeline is determined.

Ultrasonic arrays have been investigated for inspecting the quality of special materials. Unfortunately, non-destructive testing and evaluation (NDT&E) of internal defects in additive manufacturing (AM) materials are difficult due to the anisotropy and the coarse grain. To solve the problem, this paper brings forward research on the inspection of TC18 AM titanium alloy products using an ultrasonic array. Firstly, a three-dimensional acoustic field distribution of different ultrasonic array transducers is established to design an optimal detection solution for an AM titanium alloy. Then, a total focusing method (TFM) for the ultrasonic annular array transducer is proposed and its imaging method is analyzed. Besides, the relation between ultrasonic group velocities in a TC18 AM specimen with different propagating angles is measured using the full matrix capture (FMC) method. Based on the measurements, the anisotropy of the AM titanium alloy is discussed and the TFM algorithm of annular array is optimized as well. Finally, C-scan experiments are conducted on the specimen with a height of 55 mm using the linear ultrasonic array transducer of the conventional focusing method and the TFM of annular array transducer, respectively. The results show that the TFM of annular array has higher accuracy in quantifying the defects of flat bottom holes and transverse holes with a diameter of 0.8 mm. In addition, the detection results of different forming directions are analyzed and the 3D imaging of defects in the specimen is realized based on FMC data. The TFM of annular array is an innovative ultrasonic testing technology with high resolution for AM titanium alloy products.

Abstract Through Silicon Via (TSV) is the most promising technology for vertical interconnection in novel three-dimensional chip architectures. Reliability and quality assessment necessary for process development and manufacturing require appropriate non-destructive testing techniques to detect cracks and delamination defects with sufficient penetration and imaging capabilities. The current paper presents the application of two acoustically based methods operating in the GHz-frequency band for the assessment of the integrity of TSV structures.

Das Forschungsprojekt „Prozessintegrierte Softsensorik zur Oberflächenkonditionierung beim Außenlängsdrehen von 42CrMo4“ widmet sich der Entstehung und der In-process-Erfassung von industriell relevanten Randschichtzuständen. Im Speziellen werden sogenannte White Layer und Eigenspannungszustände untersucht. Durch die modulare Verknüpfung von zerstörungsfreier Prüftechnik, Simulationsergebnissen und Prozesswissen mittels Datenfusion wird ein Softsensor erforscht. Dieser soll im Rahmen einer adaptiven Regelung des Drehprozesses eingesetzt werden und eine gezielte Einstellung von vorteilhaften Randschichtzuständen erlauben. The research project „Process-integrated soft sensor technology for surface conditioning during external longitudinal turning of 42CrMo4“ is dedicated to the formation and in-process-detection of surface layers with industrial relevance. In particular, so-called white layers and residual stresses are investigated. A soft sensor is being researched through the modular combination of non-destructive testing technology and process knowledge by means of data fusion. This is to be used in the context of an adaptive control of the turning process in order to adjust beneficial surface states.
