Abstract
During testing of a panel-like workpiece by means of ultrasonic penetration and at least one inspection channel comprising an ultrasonic transmitter and an ultrasonic receiver on opposite-lying sides of the workpiece, diverse test signals and test information are accumulated at the ultrasonic receiver. Each ultrasonic receiver is connected to an evaluation system, in which the test signals and the test information are combined, evaluated and reduced to a single piece of result-information which describes the tested workpiece. If at least two inspection channels are provided, it can also be provided that a reduction to a single piece of result-information is performed in each case for each ultrasonic receiver.
Claims4
Method of testing a panel-like workpiece, e.g. a chip panel or a fibre panel, by means of ultrasonic penetration with at least one inspection channel,
- wherein each inspection channel comprises an ultrasonic transmitter and an ultrasonic receiver which are separated from each other by means of an air gap,
- wherein the workpiece is moved through the air gap,
- and wherein an output of each ultrasonic receiver is connected to an evaluation system,
- characterised in that in the evaluation system all of the diverse test signals and test information obtained from the at least one ultrasonic receiver are combined, evaluated and reduced to a single piece of result-information which describes the tested workpiece.
