Temate BW-LT(ERW) Key Features
Temate BW-LT(ERW) is an automated system for inspection of longitudinal welds in ERW Tubes. The system uses Electro-Magnetic Acoustic Transducer (EMAT) methods to perform ultrasonic non-destructive testing of welds without couplant.
The lack of coupling fluid permits inspection of tubes at higher temperatures, and installation immediately after the welder without the need for heat quenching. The system can detect weld defects, such as hook cracks,pinholes, inclusions, penetrators, mismatch, skelp burr, and poor scarfing (ID and OD) and meet all API standards.
The temate® BW-LT(ERW) system uses an overhead gantry with independent calibration and operation positions, and supports a variety of factory interface connections for automated setup, and real-time alarming and tagging.
The temate® BW-LT(ERW) provides a superior return on investment by minimizing scrap rates while meeting all the quality codes.
