The scanning unit includes a splitting device and an optoelectronic detector arrangement. The splitting device is configured to separate sub-beams incident thereon as a function of wavelength. The splitting device is configured as an asymmetrical interferometer that includes two interferometer arms having different optical path lengths, within which the sub-beams propagate between splitting and recombination until the recombined sub-beams arrive at the detector arrangement. The optical position-measuring device is configured to generate a plurality of phase-shifted scanning signals indicative of a relative position of the scanning unit and of the material measure, wherein phase relations of the generated phase-shifted scanning signals are wavelength-dependent.

Abstract: In a method for leakage flux testing of ferromagnetic material to be tested, in particular ferromagnetic pipes, for detecting defects, a testing volume of the material to be tested is magnetized by a constant magnetic field. A surface of the material to be tested is scanned by a probe arrangement for capturing magnetic leakage fields caused by defects. The probe arrangement has a probe array with a multiplicity of magnetic-field-sensitive probes arranged next to one another in a first direction and held at a finite testing distance from the surface of the material to be tested during the testing. Electrical probe signals are evaluated for qualifying the defects. Use is made of a probe arrangement in which the probes each have a probe width in the first direction which lies in the range from 20% of the testing distance up to 10 mm.
