Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic system for friction stir welding internal defect on-line detection, which comprises a mechanical scanning motion subsystem, a phased array ultrasonic instrument, an electric control subsystem and a control unit, and is characterized in that the mechanical scanning motion subsystem is used for realizing movement of a phased array probe along a welding seam and clamping and coupling of the probe; the phased array ultrasonic instrument is used for acquiring and processing ultrasonic data, and the control unit is used for performing data communication, instruction issuing and defect image processing with the phased array ultrasonic instrument and the electric control subsystem by taking Ethernet as a medium based on an industrial personal computer; and the electric control subsystem receives an instruction of the control unit to drive the mechanical scanning motion subsystem to drive the probe to realize full-automatic scanning detection on the friction stir welding seam of the cylindrical or conical workpiece. The system has the advantages of high automation degree, visual imaging, high detection efficiency and capability of automatically identifying, counting and analyzing defects.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of detection of internal defects of friction stir welding welds, and in particular relates to an automatic system for on-line detection of internal defects of friction stir welding. Background technique [0002] Friction stir welding (FSW) technology is widely used in the welding of key parts of aerospace equipment. In practical applications, due to the influence of welding process parameter deviation, clamping conditions, material surface conditions, operators and other factors, friction stir welding workpieces may also Defects appear, which in turn affects the performance of the joint. Compared with conventional fusion welding defects, friction stir welding defects have characteristics such as closeness, fineness, and complex orientation, which increases the difficulty of detection. At present, the non-destructive testing technologies for friction stir welding seam defects mainly include X-ray and ultrasonic testing...
