The uneven surface of the weld seam makes eddy current testing more susceptible to the lift-off effect of the probe. Therefore, the defect of carbon steel plate welds has always been a difficult problem in eddy current testing. This study aimed to design a new type of eddy current orthogonal axial probe and establish the finite element simulation model of the probe. The effect of the probe structure, coil turns, and coil size on the detection sensitivity was simulated. Further, a designed orthogonal axial probe was used to conduct a systematic experiment on the weld of carbon steel specimens, and the 0.2 mm width and 1 mm depth of weld defects of carbon steel plates were effectively detected. The experimental results showed that the new orthogonal axial eddy current probe effectively suppressed the unevenness effect of the weld surface on the lift-off effect during the detection process.

Due to uneven surface and lift-off effect, it is difficult to detect weld crack by eddy-current testing. A new orthogonal eddy-current probe for weld crack detection of carbon-steel plate was designed in this paper. Based on COMSOL Multiphysics, the influence of scanning angle on detection sensitivity of the probe was compared firstly. Then, the effects of coil width, coil side length, detection coil height, and lift-off distance on detection sensitivity of the probe were studied, respectively. Finally, the test piece of carbon-steel plate weld with crack, and the physical probe used to verify the crack detection effect were made. The experimental results show that the weld crack of carbon-steel plate with length × width × depth of 20.0 mm × 0.3 mm × 1 mm can be effectively identified, and the lift-off noise can be effectively suppressed by the method presented in this paper. At the same time, the signal-to-noise ratio of the probe keeps constant in the lift-off distance range of 0.3 mm–3.0 mm.
