Abstract

Reflection and send-receive type probe shielded by ferrite is designed to evaluate the thickness of test plate by a pulsed eddy current (PEC) method and effects of pulse width to PEC signal are investigated when a 10.5 mm thick, nonmagnetic plate is inspected. Results show that the best sensitivity to thickness variation can be achieved by the peak value of a PEC signal. Pulse width variation study suggests that the shorter pulse width is desired if the peak value or the zero crossing time is used to evaluate the thickness, while the longer pulse width is needed if the time to peak value is used to evaluate it.
