A system for automatic inspection of hot rolled billets has been developed and put into production use by the Republic Steel Corporation. The development
In this work heat flux thermography algorithms are proposed to suppress false indications that appear when testing steel billets with inductive thermography
Magnetic Particle Inspection of hot rolled steel billets is a long established technique for the detection of surface breaking longitudinal cracks as part
After that the billets are sand blasted, inspected and surface defects, if any, are removed by grinding. The process steps 1- 4 are called Production line I and
