DEMAGNETIZATION:
Small pieces, which have become
residually magnetized, may be easily demagnetized by
the following procedure: Energize the Probe and pass
small parts through the area between the leg ends “feet”
and withdraw to a distance of approximately two feet.
On large pieces, place the Probe in the same position
as inspection, energize the Probe and lift from the work
surface to a distance of approximately two feet. This
procedure may need to be performed more than once to
remove the residual field.
AC MAGNETIZATION:
An AC magnetic field induced
into a
part is a “skin” or surface field and does not
penetrate the cross section of the material. A by-product
of AC is in the form of eddy currents. These eddy
currents tend to guide or direct the magnetic field in a
narrow pattern between the poles. Another by-product is
a vibratory action, which adds mobility to the inspection
particles to form a more highly defined powder build-up at
the defect. For these reasons, an AC magnetic field is the
most desirable for the detection of surface breaking
defects.
CAUTION:
Small parts may become magnetically saturated due to excessive field application. This
may cause a masking effect to the point where it is impossible to define a defect.
