The job is focused on experimental activities, measurement, optimization work, and programming related to the development of unique, autonomous magnetic particle testing (MT) devices, which use magnetic fields and special liquids bearing ferromagnetic particles to visualize invisible defects on the surface of tested products and components.
Such an MT device has several critical components, the most important of which include:
- Magnetization devices and current circuits, along with current and process controls,
- Electromagnetic field measurement and self-diagnostic systems,
- Robotic systems for part and camera manipulation and measurement,
- Optical devices and vision systems, and
- Computer vision software and algorithms.
These components may be grouped into two main areas — electromagnetic application tasks and vision/programming application tasks.
Electromagnetic tasks include electromagnetic field measurement using robotic equipment, automated measurement of magnetic particle suspension concentrations, optimization and testing of robotic manipulation systems, and process/measurement experiments.
Vision tasks include verifying etalons and gauges, optimizing optical diagnostic functions, re-verifying data sets, reconstructing camera images, masking images of tested parts, and optimizing and testing Automated Defect Recognition (ADR) systems.
Based on the interest and background of the intern, one or both directions can be the focus of the internship.
