Waygate Krautkramer Rota Vis - Tube/Pipe Tester (ROT-VIS)

The Waygate Technologies Krautkramer Rota Vis - Tube/Pipe Tester (ROT), a Baker Hughes business product (formerly GE Inspection Technologies), is high speed full body tester with rotating probes systems for seamless and Electrical Resistance Welded (ERW) tubes. In addition to defect testing, a complete geometry measurement is also possible in one machine in one test run. Different models are available in diameters from 10 to 345 mm (.39 to 13.6 in.)

Product Features

• Longitudinal, transversal, oblique defects, lamination; wall thickness and OD measurements; ID, ovality, eccentricity calculations
• 5 different models available (diameter dependent)
• Depending on the test mode throughput speeds up to 120 m/min (394ft./min)

Technology

• Electronics: VIS
• Software: UNI-VIS

Applications

• Steel industry (OCTG, boiler tubes, construction tubes, etc.)
• Designed for tube mill environment
• Hot rolled and/or cold finished tubes
