[0002] Quality control is a crucial link in the production and use of stainless steel pipes. Stainless steel pipes are widely used in many fields such as petroleum, chemical industry, food processing, and medical treatment due to their excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties. However, due to various factors in the production process, such as material defects and improper processing technology, stainless steel pipes may have various defects on the inner and outer surfaces, such as cracks, pores, inclusions, etc. These defects will not only affect the performance and service life of stainless steel pipes, but may also pose a threat to the safe operation of equipment.
[0003] The ultrasonic detection equipment currently on the market mainly uses ultrasonic detection structures to perform ultrasonic detection on the surface of stainless steel pipes in motion and transportation. After detection, the defective parts are marked by manual dot drawing, or the defective parts are moved to the spray device for spray marking through axial rotation of the stainless steel pipe. The overall movement of the stainless steel pipe consumes a lot of energy, and the overall movement inertia is large and inefficient, resulting in low accuracy in spray marking positioning. Another method is to arrange a number of evenly distributed spray devices on the periphery of the stainless steel pipe to position the stainless steel pipe in linear motion for spraying. There is no need for overall movement of the stainless steel pipe, but there are spraying dead angles between adjacent spray devices, the marking positioning accuracy is low, and the layout of multiple spray devices leads to high equipment costs and many defects.
