Weld Defect Trending
Pipeline welding – pipeline weld testing
Designed for the pipeline weld testing industry, UT Scan delivers unprecedented reliability and accuracy. You can count on UT Scan in even the most demanding pipeline welding environments with its industrial grade computer hardware and precise manufacturing.
Weld defects can be identified by :
- Type: planar or volumetric
- Location: through thickness depth
- Location: upstream weld side or downstream weld side
- Fusion defects with the parent metal, or weld interpass fusions defects
- Vertical height of defects
- Defect sizing within ± .5 – 1.0 mm
- Amplitude sizing and TOFD sizing
- UT Scan Plus Weld Software is programmable for job/criteria specifics, Automatic Defect Detection and Evaluation
- High/Low detection and measurement for Internal and External Quality Control/Defect Trending for Welding Foreman and Welding Engineers with all aspects of the defects known
UT Scan's PlusWeld reporting software offers reporting and trending of defects and keeps a "live" record of the repair list.
PlusWeld automatically collects and audits the weld testing results. It offers the operator and our clients and consultants a real-time view of the welding progress, defects and a defect trending, on an "as is", daily or project basis. The results are broken down by the welds, welder, defect types or a particular zone of the weld of interest. This will give you quality reporting information on your entire project in real time.
UT Scan's Weld Defect Detection and Trending
- Detects planar defects more reliably than Gamma Ray or Manual UT can
- Defect trending reports are automatically generated by PlusWeld
- Reject able welds are documented and can be reported immediately following weld scan. Defects are identified in data file and file is stored.
- High P.O.D. for planar defects – No false alarm - No radiation - Faster results
- Defect height sizing – Depth measurements– ECA acceptance criteria can be used
- Fully cross-sectional view of defects with visualized high/low situations
Scan Results
- Create one or more defects, cutouts, re-inspections or anomalies for each weld
- Includes:
- Defect type
- Start and end locations
- Weld pass
- Weld side
- Depths and Vertical Heights
