Visualization of Hidden Cracks in Ferromagnetic Materials by Magnetoptical Method

Keywords

magneto-optical effect, hidden cracks, non-destructive testing of paint and varnish coatings

Abstract

A compact device has been developed that provides visualization of defects with a spatial resolution of 20 μm. The conducted studies have confirmed the effectiveness of the developed scheme for detecting cracks under the paint coating in steel structures, which opens up prospects for its use in industrial flaw detection.
