Phased array ultrasonic testing of gear tooth.

This paper proposes a new testing method, phased array ultrasonic testing, for the internal defects of gear teeth, which can be used to inspect the teeth of final products, breaking the limitations of incomplete volume coverage of conventional ultrasonic testing. This paper mainly discusses the inspection process of phased array ultrasonic testing, and verifies the feasibility of phased array ultrasonic testing for gear teeth defects of finished products by using physical and chemical inspection technology. The practical application results show that the phased array ultrasonic testing technology uses sector scanning mode to scan the area comprehensively between the pitch circle and the base circle, and the inspection image displayed by the equipment is intuitive, which can clearly identify defects. The number of defects inspected by phased array ultrasonic testing is consistent with the results of the physical and chemical inspection technology. The above summary shows that phased array ultrasonic testing is feasible, and the test results are reliable. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
