Abstract
The time-to-peak serves as a popular signal feature of pulsed eddy current (PEC) signals and is widely used in thickness measurement and defect detection. In order to further improve the ability of time-to-peak independent of the lift-off effect, a time derivative processing method is proposed in this paper to obtain a better time-to-peak feature of time derivative signals of PEC for reducing the lift-off effect. The method is used to improve the thickness measurement accuracy of ferromagnetic samples. The results of simulation and experimentation demonstrate that a time-to-peak feature of time derivative signals of PEC can be obtained using the time derivative processing method and the timeto-peak obtained from time derivative signals of PEC can be used to measure the thickness and improve the thickness measurement accuracy of ferromagnetic samples. This means that the use of the time-to-peak of time derivative signals of PEC is feasible for high-precision evaluation of the thickness of ferromagnetic samples.
