Standard Practice for Electromagnetic (Eddy-Current) Examination of Ferromagnetic Cylindrical Bar Product Above the Curie Temperature
The following bibliographic material is provided to assist you with your purchasing decision:
Scope
1.1 This practice describes procedures for eddy-current examination of hot ferromagnetic bars above the Curie temperature where the product is essentially nonmagnetic, but below 2100°F (1149°C).
1.2 This practice is intended for use on bar products having diameters of 1/2 in. (12.7 mm) to 8 in. (203 mm) at linear throughput speeds up to 1200 FPM (366 MPM). Larger or smaller diameters may be examined by agreement between the using parties.
1.3 The purpose of this document is to provide a procedure for in-line eddy-current inspection of bars during processing for the detection of major or gross surface discontinuities.
1.3.1 The types of discontinuities capable of being detected are commonly referred to as: slivers, laps, seams, roll-ins (scale, dross, etc.) and mechanical damage such as scratches, scores or indentations.
1.4 This practice does not establish acceptance criteria. They must be specified by agreement between the using parties.
1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
