Testing of extruded aluminum tubes

Testing of extruded aluminum tubes

This application describes the recognition of faults in extruded aluminum tubes. These tubes are used for the production of refrigerator condensers.

The tubing manufacturer must ensure that the tubes are not perforated. The quality of the tube is controlled in this application with the modular encircling coil system EC15. For the analysis of the measurements, the Universal Fault Detection System UFD40 is the ideal solution.

The UFD40 signalizes the material defect via an I/O or a fieldbus interface. So the faults can be marked or cut out to ensure the production of quality products.
