Abstract

See full text

Eddy current sensors and sensor arrays are used to characterize welds and the welding process schedule or parameters. A sensor or sensor array is placed in proximity to the test material, such as a lap joint or a butt weld, and translated over the weld region. Effective properties associated with the test material and sensor, such as an electrical conductivity or lift-off, are obtained for the weld region and the base material at a distant location from the weld region. The effective properties or features obtained from the effective property variation with position across the weld are used to assess the welding process parameters.
