The present work, aims to inspect by ultrasonic method numbers of imported steel
billets, which cause stopping and breaking in the production – lines.
The inspection was done by using ultrasonic detector,(echo – pulse method), a
straight – beam pr
obe was used as a transducer and receiver, at the same time.
The results of inspection showed the possibility of accurate defect determination in
steel billets, and also showed a good agreement between the experimental results and the
number of stopping and breaking in production in factory, and also the necessity to use that
inspection method in the imported billets which cause the continuous breaking in the
production – lines.
