Abstract
A method for detecting a metal residue present in an electric-resistance-welded steel pipe includes a first step of inserting the electric-resistance-welded steel pipe into an exciting coil while relatively moving the electric-resistance-welded steel pipe in a longitudinal direction and magnetizing the electric-resistance-welded steel pipe using a direct current at a field intensity capable of magnetizing the electric-resistance-welded steel pipe and the metal residue up to a magnetic saturation state by the exciting coil and a second step of inserting the electric-resistance-welded steel pipe into a detecting coil while relatively moving the electric-resistance-welded steel pipe in the longitudinal direction, detecting an induced electromotive force generated in the detecting coil by a change in a magnetic flux caused by the direct-current magnetization by the exciting coil in the first step as an output signal of the detecting coil, and detecting the metal residue present in the electric-resistance-welded steel pipe on the basis of the output signal of the detecting coil.
