Abstract

UN SISTEMA AUTOMATICO PARA LA INSPECCION NO DESTRUCTIVA DE UNA SOLDADURA MEDIANTE EL USO DE ONDAS ULTRASONICAS PRODUCIDAS POR UN TRANSDUCTOR ELECTROMAGNETICO ACUSTICO (EMAT). EL SISTEMA INCLUYE: LA UNIDAD DE CONTROL DE UN ORDENADOR (31); UN APARATO DE TRANSPORTE (32) QUE TIENE UN PRIMER EMAT (24) PARA PRODUCIR UNA ONDA TRANSVERSAL SH ULTRASONICA Y UN SEGUNDO EMAT (26) PARA RECIBIR UNA ONDA TRANSVERSAL SH ULTRASONICA REFLEJADA DESDE UNA SOLDADURA A TOPE (22); UNA UNIDAD DE ADQUISICION DE DATOS (33) Y UN SISTEMA DE CALIBRACION (38). LA UNIDAD DE CONTROL DEL ORDENADOR, ESTA EN COMUNICACION ELECTRICA CON EL APARATO DE SOLDADURA, EL APARATO DE TRANSPORTE Y LA UNIDAD DE ADQUISICION DE DATOS, COORDINA EL EXAMEN DE LA SOLDADURA CON LA CULMINACION DE LA SOLDADURA. UN SENSOR DE DETECCION DE BORDE, FIJADO AL APARATO DE TRANSPORTE SE UTILIZA PARA POSICIONAR AUTOMATICAMENTE EL APARATO DE TRANSPORTE PARA EXAMINAR LA SOLDADURA Y PARA EMITIR UNA SEÑAL DE CULMINACION DEL EXAMEN. EL SISTEMA INCLUYE UN ESCUDOELECTROSTATICO PARA PROTEGER EL SEGUNDO EMAT DE LAS INTERFERENCIAS ELECTROMAGNETICAS Y DE RADIOFRECUENCIA. OTRAS CARACTERISTICAS ELECTRONICAS NUEVAS Y MEJORADAS PERMITEN QUE CIERTOS COMPONENTES DEL SISTEMA SE PUEDAN SITUAR DE FORMA REMOTA DESDE EL APARATO DE TRANSPORTE Y EL APARATO DE SOLDADURA.
