The VEDAQ-PRO™ system is calibrated on a reference standard before beginning inspection. To start, the magnetizing coil is positioned over the end of the drill pipe. The buggy drive and sensor head are then placed on top of the pipe, with the magnetizing coil mounted onto the buggy assembly.
Once the equipment is in position, pneumatic jacks lift the pipe to ensure the buggy and coil can travel freely above the pipe racks. The electronics operator initiates the inspection by powering the buggy and launching the software. While the buggy traverses the length of the pipe, the operator monitors live data through the system interface.
Upon reaching the opposite end, the jacks lower the pipe back onto the racks. The buggy and coil are then removed and repositioned on the next pipe for inspection in the reverse direction. This process is repeated for each pipe in the batch.
