Flux Leakage Method
AC current flows through two rotating magnetizing yokes. The yokes magnetize the test piece at a distance of a few millimeters. Special test shoes with protected probes located between the yoke arms scan the surface of the test piece by sliding over it
Detecting miniscule defects
The AC magnetic field generates a magnetic flux inside the test piece. If the test piece has an inconsistency in its surface, the magnetic field is deviated and a leakage flux is generated. The sliding probes detect the leakage flux and the NOVAFLUX testing system displays and reports this deviation including exact localization information.
In this way, defects as small as 0.1mm can be detected.
