Non-destructive Testing

Welding Inspection - WELD-CHECK

WELD-CHECK is a fully automatic system for non-destructive, contactless examination of welded joints of car bodies and sets new standards for testing accuracy and efficiency.

WELD-CHECK by InfraTec

Quality Control and Weld Inspec­tion with WELD-CHECK

  • Universal use through testing of resistance and laser welded joints (resistance welding spots, laser welding seams, RobScan welding seams)

  • Increase in efficiency through fully automatic weld testing system with measurement duration of only a few seconds per welding seam or welding spot

  • Highest weld testing accuracy through evaluation with special software algorithm

  • Detection and classification of various types of defects as deviations in the joining process at an early stage

  • Integration into the local quality management by creating test records to be included into databases

Ther­mo­graphy for Fully-Auto­mated Non-Destructive Testing of Car Bodies

Using pulse thermography, the weld inspection system WELD-CHECK enables you a quantitative assessment of the inspected welds. A special software algorithm analyzes the pulse-induced change in temperature in the tested joint and computes, based on its temporal course and geometric spreading, corresponding test results. These results are documented in a test report and provided in a format that can be used in your quality databases. This makes WELD-CHECK the ideal weld test system for automobile body assembly - both as an offline measuring unit as well as for in-line inspection.

Thermal imaging cameras of the high-end camera series ImageIR® by InfraTec are essential components used in this system. Enabling a geometric resolution of up to (1,920 × 1,536) IR pixels, frame rates with some kHz and thermal resolutions below 0,015 K they provide the precise measurement basis for the reliable detection of even the smallest anomalies.
