Equipment Of Magnetic Particle Inspection.
To inspect a part using a head - shot, the part is clamped between two electrical contact pads. The magnetic solution,called a bath, is then flowed over the surface of the part. The bath is then interrupted and magnetizing current is applied to the part for a short duration. typically 0.5 to 1.5 seconds.(precautions should be taken to prevent burning or overheating of the part) A circular field flowing around the circumstances of the part is created. Leakage fields from defects then attract the particles to form indications. When the coil is used to establish a longitudinal Magnetic field within the part is placed on the inside surface of the coil. Just as done with a head shot, the bath is then flowed over the surface of the part. A magnetizing current is applied to the part for a short duration, typically 0.5 to 1.5 seconds, just after coverage with the bath is interrupted. (Precautions should be taken to prevent burning or overheating of the part) Leakag...
