Abstract:
New advantages for quality control of Plastic Gas Pipes with an Ultrasonic Flaw Detection Rotation Machine

Author Rolf Diederichs


Abstract

The article describes the need for in-line automated ultrasonic flaw detection for gas plastic pipes. There are economically feasible solutions available, even for inexpensive plastic pipe production sites, and safety expenditures pay off in the long run. This article describes a possible design and gives recommendations for buyers as well as suppliers' sites, and serves as a general introduction on how to find a specific ultrasonic test procedure. The system is based on Ultrasonic testing with a rotary head and is available and on the market.
