Round and square bars in line inspection

BIS (Bar Inspection System)

100% automatic (calibration included), pass-through inspection systems using UT Phased Array and Eddy Current Array technology for round and square bars (black, sandblasted and rolled/peeled bars) in line, with high productivity (testing speed up to 2m/s). These are “turnkey” systems (manufactured in Canada and/or integrated by CGM).

  • T1 for testing of round bars (10 ÷ 65 mm). Maximum sensitivity FBH 0.7 mm, testing speed from 0.5 to 2 m/s, based on the hardware configuration of the system, the type of defect being sought and the material’s surface and straightness conditions.

  • T2 for testing of round (20 ÷ 100 mm, or 25 ÷ 125 mm) and square (30 ÷115 mm) bars. Maximum sensitivity FBH 0.7 mm, testing speed from 0.5 to 2 m/s, based on the hardware configuration of the system, the type of defect being sought and the material’s surface and straightness conditions.

  • T4 for testing of round (80 ÷ 250 mm) and square (90 ÷ 240 mm) bars. Maximum sensitivity FBH 0.8 mm, testing speed from 0.3 to 1 m/s, based on the hardware configuration of the system, the type of defect being sought and the material’s surface and straightness conditions.

The UT Phased Array technology allows simultaneous inspection with longitudinal (LW) and transverse (SW) waves, ensuring 100% coverage of the cross section (with detection of internal, subsurface and superficial defects). The uncontrolled ends are approximately 30 mm for T1 and T2 and 50 mm for T4.

The Eddy Current Array technology allows the detection of longitudinal, transverse and oblique surface defects. The minimum detectable depth is about 0.2 mm (it varies according to the material’s surface condition).

This type of system fulfils the conditions required by the specific regulations for the Automotive, Nuclear and Aeronautical industry (NADCAP).
