Abstract

The optimal structural scheme and special features of the new automated plant for magnetic nondestructive testing of electric-welded pipes in a technological industrial line, which meets contemporary demands, are considered. It has been shown that the use of computer technologies and thin-filmed high-resolution transducers provides significant improvement of operating possibilities of a flaw detector and makes it possible to detect, not only such flaws as discontinuities in metal and displacement of edges, but also flaws caused by failures in welding regimes, such as burns and cohesion of edges near a welded joint.
