Ultrasound inspection system and ultrasonic quality control method

摘要

The invention refers to an ultrasound inspection roller provided with a wheel (1), a sensing system (3) and a support (2) for holding the sensing system inside the wheel, a wedge (4) connected to the ultrasound sensing system at one end and provided with a curved profile at its other end facing the wheel (1), adapted to the curvilinear shape of the wheel (1), and a liquid of a density higher than 9,9 10 2 kg/m3 (5) placed inside the wheel such that the sensory system (3), the wheel (1) and the wedge (4) are acoustically coupled. The invention allows the early detection of problems during manufacturing of composites and the performance of corrective measures in real time, and assures a good coupling between the transducers and the material to be inspected in dry conditions.
