| Summary: | An automated system for magnetic particle inspection has been developed in this research for
the nondestructive testing industry. The automation hardware was designed and developed in
conjunction with a machine vision system. A control valve was introduced for the application
of magnetic particles during inspection. A DC motor was used to orient the tested specimen
under the camera vision range. The specimen is then inspected for certain type of defects. A
C++ program was developed to perform image processing and the automation of the hardware.
A microcontroller was used to send commands to the hardware from the programmed
software. The automation hardware and software were integrated to enhance the existing
magnetic particle inspection machine.
