Abstract
Square billet is an important industrial raw material. Due to the large amount of oxidation skin on the surface after continuous casting process, it needs surface grinding treatment. Meanwhile, the billet surface is prone to stress concentrations and cracks in the crystallization zone, so it is easy to break and cause accidents in the subsequent process. However, the poor surface condition of the reground billet, such as the large roughness and fluctuations in the shape, makes it difficult to be tested by traditional methods. In this paper, the relationship between the excitation frequency of alternative current magnetic flux leakage (AC-MFL) and the fluctuation of magnetic field generated by uneven surface is studied, and the high-frequency AC leakage field formation is restated. Furthermore, a flexible probe integrating parallel cables (PC) magnetizer and receiving coils is proposed, which can realize the profiling testing and reduce the influence of the undulating surface. Finally, the wavelet transform is used to reconstruct signals, which increases the average signal-to noise ratio (SNR) from 7.25 dB to 11.89 dB.
