NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING BY RADIOGRAPHY OF WELDED SPIRAL TUBES. CASE STUDY: THE ALGERIAN SOCIETY OF METAL TUBES (ALTUMET)

Latifa BOUSSALIA

Abstract


This study aims to deepen a diagnosis by NDT methods in order to know the state of the weld seams of the spirally welded tubes during the manufacturing phase. After a detailed analysis of NDT methodologies, for this purpose, we first place identified the types of weld defect (surface and volume). These defects were the main cause of the constraints in the production of the tubes, at the complexity and diversity of welding parameters (grade, thickness, current, etc.). The obtained results summarize the experimental observations from inspections not destructive by x-rays to the level ALTUMET .
