This invention belongs to the field of
nondestructive testing and relates to an automatic evaluation method,
system, and equipment for ultrasonic
phased array testing of welded
pipe end faces. It aims to solve the problems of high subjectivity, low efficiency, and lack of digital
traceability in manual inspection of welded
pipe ends. The invention includes: acquiring
spectral data from two circumferential directions, one vertical wall thickness direction, and one axial detection direction, and selecting target image data from them. For circumferential data, longitudinal non-layered defects are evaluated based on whether the
signal parameters exceed a first preset standard; for vertical wall thickness data, layered defects are evaluated based on whether the
signal indication magnitude exceeds a second preset standard; for
axial data, inherent structural echoes are intelligently identified and filtered out based on a three-dimensional model of the
pipe end and a path-amplitude difference fusion
algorithm, and transverse non-layered defects are evaluated based on whether the residual
signal parameters exceed a third preset standard. This invention achieves automated and standardized detection and evaluation of welded pipe end defects, improving the objectivity, efficiency, and quality
traceability of the inspection.
