Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and a device for detecting recessed surface defects, opening onto the surface of a metallurgical product and having a relatively great depth relative to their section.
- defects of this type are encountered in particular in raw metallurgical products of continuous casting, such as steel rods or blooms. These defects can be pits, commonly designated by the term “pin-holes", constituted by small cylindrical holes substantially perpendicular to the surface, the diameter of which is of the order of a few hundred micrometers, typically about 500 ⁇ m. , and whose depth is of the order of a few millimeters (typically from 1 to 10 mm or even more). They are therefore in fact holes of small cross section but of relatively great depth, the walls of which are practically perpendicular to the surface. Such defects conventionally result from the release, on the surface of the rods, of gas bubbles trapped in the metal cast in an ingot mold. Other defects also having a small transverse dimension with respect to their depth are generated for example by jamming of guide rollers downstream of the mold and appear in the form of grooves extending in the longitudinal direction of the cast product.
- defects are prohibitive for the quality of the products obtained, and must be removed, for example by grinding, before this product is rolled. It is therefore necessary to detect them, locate them and estimate their dimensions.
- One problem is that these defects, because of their small transverse dimension are generally not or poorly detected by the methods commonly used for the detection of faults on such products, based on magnetic or eddy current methods.
- defects are small compared to the surface irregularities of the raw products of continuous casting / irregularities constituted by reliefs, or bumps, which can reach 3 mm in height.
- the object of the present invention is to remedy the aforementioned problems and to allow the detection of defects such as pitting or fine scratches on products with an irregular surface, in a manner which is reliable and compatible with the requirements of detection, characterization and '' identification of faults under industrial conditions.
- the subject of the invention is a method for detecting hollow defects on the surface of a metallurgical product, such as a raw product of continuous casting, of the type according to which the surface is illuminated with an incidence.
- the surface is illuminated by two flat beams of light of wavelength situated in the vicinity of the limits of the visible range, the two beams being located in the same plane substantially orthogonal to said surface, to create thereon ci a single light trace, and directed obliquely towards each other with substantially equal angles of incidence, and we measure, under said wavelength, and in a direction of aiming orthogonal to said surface, the illumination along said track, a strong localized reduction in illumination being indicative of a defect.
- the combination of the two beams makes it possible to ensure, in the absence of defects, a substantially uniform illumination of the surface over the length of the trace, avoiding creating shadows, 'in the presence of roughness or surface irregularities in relief.
- the light beams do not illuminate the bottom of these holes, and as the direction of observation is substantially perpendicular to the surface observed, these defects appear in the form of dark areas in said trace.
- it is possible to detect, in a reliable and rapid manner when the product is moving, all the pitting type defects, by excluding the detection of other surface irregularities.
- a wavelength located in the vicinity of the limits of visible radiation preferably between 650 and 670 nm, it is avoided that the detection is disturbed by possible variations in the ambient lighting.
- the invention also relates to a device for detecting hollow faults on the surface of a metallurgical product, characterized in that it comprises two light sources of predetermined wavelength close to the limits of the visible domain, emitting flat beams having general directions of concurrent emission and arranged so that these beams are located in the same plane substantially orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of travel of said product, and means for measuring the illumination of the surface by said sources, in a viewing direction situated in said plane and perpendicular to said surface, provided with a filter centered on said wavelength, the directions of said sources being symmetrical with respect to said direction of sight.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a puncture detection device according to the invention, during a detection operation
- FIG. 2 is a sectional view on an enlarged scale of a surface area comprising such a puncture, upon detection;
- FIG. 3 is a representation of the image seen by the camera of the device
- FIG. 4 is a representation of the signal, corresponding to the image of Figure 3, emitted by the photodiodes of the camera.
- the device comprises two sources of coherent light, constituted by laser diodes 11, 12 emitting flat beams 13, 14 whose directions general, represented by the dashed lines 15, 16 are concurrent at a point A located substantially on the surface 2, towards the middle of its width.
- the device also includes means for measuring the illumination of the surface 2 caused by the said beams, constituted by a camera 17 with a linear array of photodiodes, or a linear CCD camera.
- the viewing direction 18 of the camera 17 is orthogonal to the surface 2 and passes through the point A.
- the distance from the camera to the surface 2 is chosen sufficient so that its measurement field (hatched area 19) has a sufficiently small angle , taking into account the width of the surface 2, so that the direction of observation can be considered orthogonal to the surface 2 over this entire width.
- the two laser diodes 11, 12 and the camera 17 are located in the same plane P substantially orthogonal to the direction of travel F, the two beams 13 and 14 also being located in this plane, as is the array of photodiodes of the camera .
- the laser diodes 11, 12 preferably emit in a wavelength between 650 and 670 nm.
- laser diodes however, has the advantages of working in wavelengths without risk to personnel, of reduced bulk and very low energy consumption, the power of such diodes being of the order of 20 mW.
- the illumination provided by these laser diodes is sufficient for surfaces to be checked having a width of a few tens of centimeters. For larger products, higher power laser generators can be used.
- the camera 17 is equipped with a filter 20 centered on the wavelength of the laser diodes, so as to capture only the radiation coming from these diodes and reflected by the surface 2, to the exclusion of any other light radiation ambient.
- Camera 17 is for example a linear camera with 2048 points with fast scanning (500 ⁇ s).
- a resolution of 500 ⁇ m can be obtained (corresponding to the distance the product moves between two successive measurements), which makes it possible to ensure reliable detection of faults.
- a transverse dimension of this order of magnitude is obtained.
- the angle of incidence i of the beams emitted by the laser diodes is preferably 30 to 60 °, in particular close to 40 °. As will be better understood from FIG. 2, this angle must be determined as a function of the dimensional characteristics of the defects which it is desired to detect.
- a puncture 1 has been shown in large-scale section, which is in the form of a substantially cylindrical hole. When this puncture passes in the plane P of the beams 13 and 14, the rays 13 ', 14' do not reach the bottom 31 of the hole which therefore remains in the shade and forms a discontinuity in the trace T created on the surface 2 by the beams 13, 14.
- edges 32 of the puncture 1 are, in the case of a puncture, substantially perpendicular to the surface 2 of the product, and that the direction of sight 18 of the camera is also perpendicular to this surface, the camera 17 does not perceive radiation at the location of the defect. It will easily be understood that it would be the same if the edges 32 were flared, insofar as, taking into account the inclination of these edges and the angle of incidence i, the incident rays do not reach the bottom of the hole 1. Conversely, if the depth of the hole 1 is relatively small compared to its transverse dimension, and if the angle of incidence i is small, the bottom of the hole can be at least partially lit, and such a defect risks not to be detected.
- the sensitivity of the detection will therefore be increased. Furthermore, as can be seen on the right-hand side of FIG. 2, where a surface irregularity constituted by a bump 5 has been represented, whatever the angle of incidence, this bump is illuminated on its two faces by at least one of the beams 13, 14, and therefore will not be detected. In practice, if the angle of incidence i exceeds approximately 60 °, the detection becomes very sensitive but presents the risk that asperities generate false alarms because shadows of these asperities can appear. If, on the other hand, the angle of incidence i is reduced below about 30 °, the sensitivity decreases quickly, by the fact that the bottom of the holes is more likely to be lit.
- FIG. 3 there is shown the image 41 of the trace T, seen by the camera in the presence of the puncture 1, where the latter appears in the form of a dark area 42.
- the corresponding electrical signal 51 being represented on Figure 4 where the presence of the bite is identified by a significant reduction 52 of this signal.
- this signal is substantially constant over the entire part corresponding to the width of the surface of the product.
- the distribution of the light energy coming from a laser diode and received by the surface 2 is not symmetrical with respect to the central point A, due to the inclination of the beam, the combination of the two beams leads to restore this symmetry and to ensure a smoothing of the energy reflected at any point of the trace T.
- the signal emitted by the photodiodes is substantially constant, in the absence of pitting, over the entire length of the network, which ensures constant detection sensitivity, whether the pitting is towards the center or towards the edges of the surface 2.
- the detection is only validated when said reduction in illumination is perceived at the same position on said trace during two successive measurements carried out during the movement of the product.
- the transverse dimension of the fault detected is determined by measuring, on a signal 51 representative of the illumination along said trace, the width of the signal 52 corresponding to said reduction in illumination.
- the device comprises means 21 for counting the number of adjacent photodiodes subjected to an illumination of intensity less than a predetermined threshold.
- means 22 for locating the position of these photodiodes in the array make it possible to determine the transverse position of each fault detected.
- means 23 are provided for indicating on the product the longitudinal position of each defect, such as a paint marking system on the product, controlled by the detection device and located downstream of the latter relative to in the direction of scrolling of the product.
- the detection is carried out simultaneously on all the faces of the product, a detection device as described above being assigned to each face.
- these devices are offset longitudinally, so that the beams relating to two faces do not interfere, the traces T, T ′ of the beams on two adjacent faces being for example offset by about 10 mm.
