Abstract :
The system composition, structure characteristics and performance index of X-ray inspection real time imaging pipeline (RTIP) robot are presented in this paper. Several key techniques about the robot system development are also explained in detail. In relation to X-ray real time imaging inspection technique (RTIIT), the distinguishing trait of the robot system is that it can realize irradiation technology of the optimal magnifying multiple. The experimental results prove the X-ray inspection RTIP robot can accomplish the given technologic task and obtain the highest definition image of weld seam.
