A magnetic induction introscope for flaw detection of metal objects

An apparatus for obtaining two-dimensional images of sheet-metal products that is based on a scanning matrix of spiral induction coils has been designed. It was experimentally shown that it is possible to detect flaws and objects that are hidden behind metallic barriers. The scanning area was 37 × 32 cm and the measurement step was 5 mm. Special treatment allows one to restore the distribution of induction currents in conductive objects from the remote measurement of the normal-component distribution of the magnetic induction vector on a plane
