Abstract
Tubular member end area inspection systems and methods. One system includes a frame, a movable carriage including a magnetic flux generator, and inner and outer detector assemblies. The movable carriage, magnetic flux generator, inner and outer detector assemblies each have an inlet opening for accepting an end area of a tubular member therein and between the inner and outer detector assemblies. The inner and outer detector assemblies each having one or more magnetic or eddy current detectors adapted to be spaced a distance from inner and outer surfaces of the end area of the tubular member. An actuator assembly connecting the frame and the movable carriage includes a sensor adapted to sense an end of the tubular member and direct the movable carriage from a rest position to an inspection position about the end area of the tubular member.
