Pipeline inspection of welded steel pipe

  Welded steel pipe at the factory to go through rigorous testing to ensure the quality of welded compliance standards and user requirements. Pipe inspection items generally include: appearance quality factory inspection project, straightness, dimensions, and other types of weld quality inspection items (flattening, flaring, bending, etc.). Welded pipe surface quality and straightness inspection by a full-time quality inspector confirmed finishing process pipe segment using visual way, the implementation of the detection test dimensions available random sampling method, and the weld quality inspection shall be made on special equipment by root on line. This article focuses on online testing of the weld. At present, about our national standards, testing methods available weld pipe hydrostatic testing, ultrasonic testing, eddy current testing in any way.

  Hydrostatic test is the most common, the most direct and reliable weld line inspection

  Measured way, in a variety of hydraulic test machine. When the pressure test, through the first low-pressure water, filled the whole steel pipe to make the air side by side, and then to test pressure specified by the pressurized way, and to stabilize the prescribed time, when there is no pipe welds and around wet, spray, leakage or permanent deformation is considered qualified.

  When the metal by an alternating magnetic field is induced metal surface

  Eddy currents; when the presence of the metal surface defects, since the impedance increases, the eddy current value becomes smaller; and when no defect of a metallic material, the value of the stable vortex; size of the power according to the eddy current loss, can be characterized metals whether the surface defects.

  Ultrasonic wave propagation in the process, will have a reflection on the media surface.

  If there is a crack pipe welds, weld, false welding, lap welding defects such as acoustic impedance will change significantly, so that ultrasonic generating different reflection, through a dedicated instrument will be identified to achieve the purpose of flaw detection. The main steel tube ultrasonic flaw detection are: rotating the probe, steel straight forward; probe fixed, steel rotating forward; steel rotating probe straight forward three forms, in the production of different pipe diameter in both applications.
