Detection of the Corrosion of Axisymmetric Elements by Means of the Eddy Current Testing Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

The article describes the influence the operating frequency of the transducer on the possibility to detect corrosion using the eddy current method. A bearing ring with two artificially made corrosion defects was used as a test object. The authors determined the characteristics of the defect’s signal value in the function of frequency. The results obtained were then compared to the peak-to-peak value of the signal for a model ring. The tests confirmed the possibility of automatic detection of corrosion on the surface of bearing rings using the eddy current method.
