4 Method overview
4.1 Magnetic memory phenomenon
In a weak magnetic field environment, ferromagnetic metal materials produce
irreversible residual magnetism in local areas under the influence of external
environmental factors (such as load, temperature, and mechanical processing or
collision), which is manifested as the local magnetic field changes on the surface of the
ferromagnetic material still remain after the external environmental factors are
eliminated.
4.2 Principle of magnetic memory testing
The principle of magnetic memory testing is based on the magneto-mechanical effect
of non-uniform stress and strain. The uneven organization or stress in the material will
lead to uneven magnetization intensity, thus forming a leakage magnetic field on the
surface of the material. This principle is used in magnetic memory testing; magnetic
field mutation signals are obtained by measuring the distribution of the inherent leakage
magnetic field on the surface of the test piece without applying an artificial excitation
magnetic field and used to detect possible stress concentration, material degradation or
material damage on the test piece. The basic principle of the magnetic memory testing
method is shown in Figure 1. The magnetic memory signal is the magnetic field
component of the magnetic field on the surface of the test piece (usually the components
in the normal and scanning directions, or multi-dimensional components).
g) Particularly suitable for carbon steel components subjected to alternating loads.
4.4 Limitations
The limitations of the magnetic memory testing method are as follows:
a) Not applicable to non-ferromagnetic materials;
b) It is difficult to determine the nature and size of defects in the material;
c) Susceptible to artificial magnetization.
5 Safety requirements
This chapter does not list all safety requirements when performing tests. Users of this
part shall establish safety criteria before testing.
The safety requirements during the testing process are at least as follows:
a) The testing personnel shall comply with the safety requirements at the site and
wear protective work clothes and relevant protective equipment according to
the requirements of the testing location;
b) Care shall be taken to avoid various safety hazards, such as bumps, electric
shocks, falls, squeezing, shearing, entanglement, slips, and drowning;
c) When the inspection is carried out during and after the equipment operates,
attention shall be paid to the operating status and temperature status of the test
piece to avoid damage to the equipment and burns to personnel.
6 Personnel requirements
Personnel engaged in magnetic memory testing of amusement rides shall comply with
the relevant provisions of GB/T 34370.1.
7 Testing equipment

a) It can detect the magnetic flux density on the surface of the object being tested;
b) It can eliminate the influence of external environmental magnetic field;
c) It can display the magnetic flux density value and the curve changing with
time and space in real time;
d) It can store test data and transfer it to a computer.
7.2 Working principle of testing instrument
The working principle of the instrument is to place the magnetic sensitive element on
the surface of the test object to detect and record the spatial magnetic field signal.
7.3 Probe
The type of magnetic field probe is determined by the detection method and object. The
probe has at least two magnetic field measurement sensors, one for measuring the
magnetic field on the surface of the component and one for detecting and offsetting the
external earth magnetic field. The probe housing shall also have an electronic
amplification unit for the measured magnetic field and a displacement sensor for
measuring the length of the inspected area.
7.4 Standard magnetic field
The standard magnetic field is used for the calibration of magnetic memory testing
instruments. The standard magnetic field can be generated by the instrument or by a
permanent magnet. The standard magnetic field shall generally be in the range of 40
A/m~2000 A/m and can be adjusted.

10 Testing procedures
10.1 Determination of interference factors
The determination of interference factors shall at least consider the following elements:
a) Confirm the original surface magnetic field of the component under test. It is
recommended to keep a distance of 20 mm from the component under test;
b) Confirm the intensity of the interference magnetic field around the component
under test. If the intensity of the interference magnetic field exceeds 5 times
the intensity of the earth's magnetic field, it is recommended to eliminate the
interference source;
c) Confirm the sensitivity and range of the sensor.

scan the coverage area;
b) Place the probe vertically on the surface of the component to be inspected;
c) Determine the scanning direction and perform multiple horizontal scans to
ensure 100% coverage of the inspected area; two adjacent scans shall ensure
that the probe coverage area has a 10% overlap;
d) Continuously or discontinuously scan and detect on the surface of the
inspected component and record the normal component and (or) tangential
component of the surface magnetic field;
e) Determine the abnormal part of the magnetic memory signal and the location
of the zero-value line of the magnetic field on the surface of the test piece, and
mark them;
f) If necessary, conduct a vertical scanning inspection on the above-mentioned
parts.
10.4 Inspection of welds
The inspection of welds shall at least consider the following factors:
a) Place the probe vertically on the surface of the weld area to be inspected.
b) Horizontal scan along the center line of the weld and the heat-affected zone on
both sides of the weld (if the single scanning probe cannot cover 100% of the
inspected area, multiple scanning shall be performed) and record the normal
component and/or tangential component of the surface magnetic field.
c) Deviate a certain distance from the center line of the weld, perform vertical
scanning inspection on the weld, and record the normal component and/or
tangential component of the surface magnetic field.

NOTE: If the actual heat-affected zone of the weld has been measured and recorded, the starting point
of the scan is at least 10 mm outside the actual heat-affected zone; if the actual heat-affected zone of the
weld is unknown, the starting point of the scan is at least 25 mm outside the weld fusion line.
10.5 Analysis and processing of test data
