Progress in Research for Pipe Inner Diameter Detection Technology Based on Laser

Abstract:

It is a new method of pipeline detection that pipe detector based on laser. This paper introduces the laser inner diameter detector related principle, detail the state of development and the latest development of pipe detector based on laser designed and made by domestic and international companies, and contrastive analysis the function of pipe detector. The paper proposed development prospect and the main technical difficulties of the pipeline laser detector. The development direction of pipeline laser detector is high efficiency, high precision and high speed. However, the key technical difficulties of in pipe detector based on laser, such as centering problem, reliability and accuracy problem, data analysis and processing problems.
