System and method for automatically validating the response compliance of a penetrant testing line

A system for automatically validating a response compliance of a penetrant testing line by numerical analysis of a reference test specimen with cracks undergoing dye penetrant testing coming from said penetrant testing line, said system comprising:

• said reference test specimen with cracks undergoing dye penetrant testing coming from said penetrant testing line;
• a casing surrounding all the elements of the system;
• a positioning base for the reference test specimen undergoing dye penetrant testing;
• at least two ultraviolet lighting devices positioned on either side of the positioning base so as to be able to illuminate it with ultraviolet light;
• an electronic board;
• a motorised linear guide controlled by the electronic board and suitable for being able to move the positioning base and hold said positioning base in position in the casing;
• and
• a monochrome camera having a lens directed towards the positioning base, wherein each lighting device includes a light-emitting diode.
