Flaw Detection & Process Control Tool

The ARIS system can be implemented in rod and bar production as a flaw detection and process control tool. ARIS is well suited for use on steel, a complete spectrum of non-ferrous metals, and a limited range of non-metallic materials. Systems and transducers are designed for installation in line and for operation at production speeds. Analytical capabilities for rod and bar include: surface and subsurface defects: sensitivity to better than .002 in. surface depth sensitivity to better than 5.2 x 10-10 in3 subsurface defect volume; porosity and inclusions: sensitivity to better than 5.2 x 10-10 in3 subsurface defect volume; and hardness/annealing: sensitivity to 1.2 Rockwell alloy identification dimensional verification – sensitivity to better than .0005 in. Available case studies and technical documents related to rod and bar applications: extrusion weld detection in aluminium rod; surface defect analysis of bearing grade hot rolled steel; small diameter brass rod; subsurface defect analysis of small diameter
