This invention relates to a method for locating defects in forgings, aiming to improve the efficiency and accuracy of defect identification. The method first involves
grinding the surface of the
forging to ensure its smoothness and flatness. Next, an ultrasonic flaw
detector with low-frequency and high-frequency emission capabilities is used to emit ultrasonic
waves and acquire signals.
Wavelet transform technology is used to process and analyze the acquired signals, extracting amplitude, phase, and frequency features to form a
feature set. In the defect feature identification stage, feature vectors are constructed and input into a trained
support vector machine (SVM) model, outputting the probability of various defects. The defect type is determined based on a set threshold; if the probability exceeds the threshold, the defect is considered to exist. Finally, samples are
cut and subjected to tensile tests based on the detection results to confirm the defect characteristics. This invention combines
wavelet transform and
machine learning techniques, not only achieving precise location of
forging defects but also improving detection efficiency, demonstrating promising application prospects and economic value.
