A computer Analyzer-Tomograph of Defects for ultrasonic flaw detection of hazardous production facilities is considered on the example of control of metallurgical and refining production facilities and cryogenic equipment. Concepts/ideas of development of automation of ultrasonic flaw detection are described.
The computer Analyzer-Tomograph of Defects is designed for defect calculations, basic configuration of flaw detectors, calculations of artificial reflectors, for the formation of correction tables for instant reconfiguration of flaw detectors, computer visualization of defects, remote execution of the above services, and other information and computing functions.
The main distinctive advantages of a Computer Defect Analyzer are:
1. Visualization of all computer calculations of defect parameters, visualization of all calculations for setting up flaw detectors. This completely eliminates errors related to the human factor, which often occur when performing complex calculation operations manually, which is extremely important, especially when conducting an examination of hazardous production facilities.
2. Automation of defect calculations, analysis and evaluation of defects greatly increases productivity, reliability, quality of control and, very importantly, the visibility of all work: instrument settings, defect calculations and their evaluation. Minimizes control errors.
Makes it possible to use remote control methods in the field of non-destructive testing and industrial safety expertise,
3. Automation / computerization in flaw detection takes over the main functions of work management, significantly increases their productivity and reliability, systematizes and accumulates data [3], forms knowledge bases and solutions, allows creating new interfaces of interactive interaction between the flaw detector operator and the computer, promotes the transition to work management by Artificial Intelligence, robotics and, ultimately, the release of a person from dangerous, harmful, routine production.
