Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a method for determination of the presence, if any, of detrimental surface changes, such as increased hardness or residual stress in machined workpieces.
  • Another possibility is to try to find cracks in the material, if any, by means of a fluorescent penetrating liquid.
  • the machining damages which might be present do not always cause cracks to occur until the part has been loaded and normally this does not occur during the production but only later in service.
  • a third frequent inspection method is eddy current testing with a differential probe. In carrying out this test two coils are used and the signal difference between the coils is observed. Said method is also well suited for localising cracks while long-term changes in the materials such as the machining damages aimed at in the present case, may fade away.
  • a supplementary checking method over the blue-etch-, the differential probe and the penetration methods would be highly desirable in order to provide for an establishment with certainty whether there are machining damages present due to local over-heating by worn tools, tool breakdown or the like.
  • the absolute probe used in connection with the present invention is of simplest possible design. More closely, it has the shape of a body with a cross section adapted to the geometry of the inspected surface and a coil wound around said body. This design makes the probe sensitive to everything having influence on the electrical conductivity or magnetic permeability of the material tested. It is also sensitive to everything which changes the relationship between the surface of the material and the probe. The result thereof is that also minor material changes might be measured such as changes in residual stress, dissolved foreign atoms in small percentages as well as composition variations etc.
  • the probe according to the invention is connected to an eddy current instrument and introduced with a uniform speed through the hole in a workpiece which is to be investigated.
  • the signal from the instrument is digitalized and stored in e.g. a PC. Measuring data are then treated in order to facilitate the evaluation.
  • the cylindrical probe body preferably is made of plastic and has a sufficient length for allowing a simple attachment for automatic measuring.
  • the diameter is adapted such that the probe guides itself through the hole .
  • the inventive absolute probe also makes it possible to identify surfaces of the workpiece which have been damaged in the manufacture, where the damaging action is very small.
  • testing might be automized and the inspection time will be short compared to other testing techniques.
  • the evaluation can be automized and measuring data might be stored for being traced and evaluated later.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de déterminer, à la surface de pièces usinées, la présence éventuelle de changements dommageables, tels qu'une dureté accrue ou une contrainte résiduelle. Selon l'invention, pour obtenir des résultats d'essais très fiables, cette détermination doit s'effectuer à l'aide d'une sonde à courant de Foucault de type absolu.
