Quantitative Inspection of Broken Wire in Wire Ropes: Method and Apparatus.
This article introduces a complete system for automatic inspection of broken wire in wire ropes. The development of this technique is reviewed. It is followed by a description of the hardware and software of the apparatus. The hardware uses magnetic concentrators and Hall-effect sensors. Signal analysis is based on wavelet processing. Quantitative identification of broken wire in wire ropes is based on a pattern recognition approach of the neural network.
