00:00:07,844 --> 00:00:13,989
DELTA XRF Analyzer
Labeling for QC/PMI Testing

2
00:00:13,991 --> 00:00:16,983
Positive Material Identifcation—or PMI

3
00:00:16,984 --> 00:00:21,663
requires that materials be tested
to verify their alloy grade.

4
00:00:21,664 --> 00:00:25,743
In this video you will see
how the DELTA XRF Analyzer

5
00:00:25,744 --> 00:00:29,119
has a unique labeling
feature that streamlines

6
00:00:29,121 --> 00:00:33,526
the labeling of alloy
material verification tests.

7
00:00:33,528 --> 00:00:37,166
Creating useful, easy, real-time
test labeling

8
00:00:37,168 --> 00:00:39,848
has to satisfy three factors:

9
00:00:39,849 --> 00:00:43,419
Minimum keystrokes,
Maximum automation,

10
00:00:43,421 --> 00:00:46,418
And a consistent data entry method.

11
00:00:46,419 --> 00:00:48,503
The combination of these guarantees

12
00:00:48,504 --> 00:00:53,035
reliable and traceable
testing and reporting.

13
00:00:53,036 --> 00:00:57,641
Creating and populating labels on the
DELTA is a simple process:

14
00:00:57,643 --> 00:01:02,300
First, the label names and their
options are created in a spreadsheet

15
00:01:02,301 --> 00:01:04,886
Then the CSV version
of the spreadsheet

16
00:01:04,888 --> 00:01:07,271
is imported into the DELTA.

17
00:01:07,273 --> 00:01:11,389
This automatically creates
the labels and their options.

18
00:01:11,391 --> 00:01:15,431
This is a great way to reduce
your analyzer’s setup time.

19
00:01:15,433 --> 00:01:18,246
You can have multiple
label files on the DELTA,

20
00:01:18,248 --> 00:01:22,486
and choose the one you need
for the tests you are about to run.

21
00:01:22,488 --> 00:01:25,469
The DELTA labeling feature
is extremely helpful

22
00:01:25,471 --> 00:01:28,268
in PMI situations such as

23
00:01:28,270 --> 00:01:31,515
Incoming QC Inspection,
where the items supplied

24
00:01:31,516 --> 00:01:35,164
need to be tested to make sure
they are the items ordered.

25
00:01:35,166 --> 00:01:38,098
and In-Service Testing,
to ensure that the correct material

26
00:01:38,099 --> 00:01:41,138
is being used in the proper location.

27
00:01:41,140 --> 00:01:45,041
Incoming QC Inspection Scenario

28
00:01:45,043 --> 00:01:47,261
In the QC inspection scenario,

29
00:01:47,263 --> 00:01:52,256
a fabricator orders six seamless
stainless steel 347 grade tubes,

30
00:01:52,258 --> 00:01:54,659
two inches in diameter.

31
00:01:54,661 --> 00:01:56,424
They all should be tested

32
00:01:56,426 --> 00:01:59,851
to ensure that they are
the grade ordered.

33
00:01:59,853 --> 00:02:01,919
The QC labels have
already been imported

34
00:02:01,921 --> 00:02:04,576
and are ready to use.

35
00:02:04,578 --> 00:02:06,853
From the test window, pull the trigger

36
00:02:06,854 --> 00:02:09,486
and the label setup window opens.

37
00:02:09,488 --> 00:02:13,621
Select all the options needed
for this test, including:

38
00:02:13,623 --> 00:02:17,211
The supplier of the item being tested.

39
00:02:17,213 --> 00:02:20,424
The type of Item being tested.

40
00:02:20,426 --> 00:02:23,638
The number of items being tested.

41
00:02:23,640 --> 00:02:27,099
The diameter of the
items being tested.

42
00:02:27,101 --> 00:02:31,901
And finally,
who is performing the testing.

43
00:02:31,903 --> 00:02:34,349
Since the default result is pass,

44
00:02:34,351 --> 00:02:36,438
it can be left as is.

45
00:02:36,439 --> 00:02:38,508
If the item does not pass the test,

46
00:02:38,509 --> 00:02:43,444
this field can be changed
after the test is completed.

47
00:02:43,446 --> 00:02:45,161
Regarding the part count,

48
00:02:45,163 --> 00:02:48,399
the DELTA can count
the number of parts being tested.

49
00:02:48,401 --> 00:02:52,884
Setting the part count to one
means the count will start at one.

50
00:02:52,886 --> 00:02:58,816
If the part count is left blank
the DELTA does not provide a count.

51
00:02:58,818 --> 00:03:01,203
Once the label options
have been chosen,

52
00:03:01,204 --> 00:03:04,986
you can start testing,
right from the Label screen.

53
00:03:04,988 --> 00:03:07,183
Place the analyzer on the tube,

54
00:03:07,184 --> 00:03:12,493
pull the trigger, and the test begins.

55
00:03:12,494 --> 00:03:15,929
The test results for the first tube
is 347,

56
00:03:15,931 --> 00:03:17,993
the expected grade.

57
00:03:17,994 --> 00:03:22,166
It also shows the supplier field
from the label window.

58
00:03:22,168 --> 00:03:25,543
The DELTA chooses
the first label as the default,

59
00:03:25,545 --> 00:03:29,458
but you can change which label
appears on each test.

60
00:03:29,459 --> 00:03:32,308
When the trigger is pulled
to start the next test,

61
00:03:32,310 --> 00:03:34,726
the label window comes up.

62
00:03:34,728 --> 00:03:37,578
The part count increments
to show that the 2nd part

63
00:03:37,580 --> 00:03:39,883
is about to be tested.

64
00:03:39,884 --> 00:03:42,679
Pull the trigger
and the test commences.

65
00:03:42,681 --> 00:03:47,434
The second tube is also
the expected 347 grade.

66
00:03:47,436 --> 00:03:50,531
The third tube test starts
like the previous two,

67
00:03:50,533 --> 00:03:55,689
with the label window appearing,
and the part count now at 3.

68
00:03:55,691 --> 00:03:58,658
Pull the trigger and the test starts.

69
00:03:58,659 --> 00:04:02,273
The results show that
the tubing is 321 grade,

70
00:04:02,275 --> 00:04:04,913
not the expected 347.

71
00:04:04,914 --> 00:04:09,076
Tap the info icon
to open the Edit Test Info window

72
00:04:09,078 --> 00:04:12,615
and change the result to Fail-Grade.

73
00:04:12,616 --> 00:04:17,688
The fourth, fifth,
and sixth tubes are all 347 grade.

74
00:04:17,689 --> 00:04:21,746
The report, which can be used
in any PMI software package,

75
00:04:21,748 --> 00:04:26,636
will show the labels
and results of this testing sequence.

76
00:04:26,638 --> 00:04:30,648
In-Service Testing Scenario

77
00:04:30,649 --> 00:04:34,889
Selecting a different
set of labels to use is simple.

78
00:04:34,891 --> 00:04:37,214
The In-Service Testing
labels and their options

79
00:04:37,216 --> 00:04:39,891
have been created in a spreadsheet.

80
00:04:39,893 --> 00:04:41,946
The CSV version of the spreadsheet

81
00:04:41,948 --> 00:04:44,081
has already been imported
into the DELTA,

82
00:04:44,083 --> 00:04:47,288
so it just needs to be selected.

83
00:04:47,290 --> 00:04:49,509
Selecting the In-Service Label file

84
00:04:49,511 --> 00:04:52,664
changes the labels
that the DELTA will use.

85
00:04:52,666 --> 00:04:56,736
The tests going forward
will have the In-Service labels.

86
00:04:56,738 --> 00:05:01,733
the previous tests retain
the QC Inspection labels.

87
00:05:01,734 --> 00:05:04,961
Select the component and
the location on the component

88
00:05:04,963 --> 00:05:08,676
where the first test will be run.

89
00:05:08,678 --> 00:05:11,046
The Result field defaults to accept,

90
00:05:11,048 --> 00:05:13,504
but if the test needs to be rerun,

91
00:05:13,506 --> 00:05:18,511
this field can be changed to
Retest after the test is taken.

92
00:05:18,513 --> 00:05:20,749
Place the analyzer on the sample,

93
00:05:20,751 --> 00:05:23,520
pull the trigger and the test begins.

94
00:05:23,521 --> 00:05:28,829
For each test, the label window
appears before the test starts.

95
00:05:28,831 --> 00:05:32,229
It’s a simple matter of changing
the location of the test,

96
00:05:32,231 --> 00:05:34,630
and then running the test.

97
00:05:34,631 --> 00:05:38,553
The report, which can be used
in any PMI software package,

98
00:05:38,555 --> 00:05:42,958
will show the labels and results
of this testing sequence.

99
00:05:42,959 --> 00:05:46,513
Bluetooth Printer

100
00:05:46,515 --> 00:05:49,829
In addition to creating a report
from your test results,

101
00:05:49,831 --> 00:05:52,576
you can also print your test results.

102
00:05:52,578 --> 00:05:56,228
The DELTA XRF Analyzer
connects wirelessly

103
00:05:56,229 --> 00:06:01,886
to a Bluetooth printer,
which is sold as an accessory.

104
00:06:01,888 --> 00:06:04,581
You can print to a label,
which can be used

105
00:06:04,583 --> 00:06:07,461
to immediately identify
components tested

106
00:06:07,463 --> 00:06:09,858
or you can print to
receipt-style paper,

107
00:06:09,859 --> 00:06:12,814
to include with other documentation.

108
00:06:12,816 --> 00:06:14,548
You can print the test results

109
00:06:14,550 --> 00:06:16,281
as soon as the test is taken.

110
00:06:16,283 --> 00:06:22,113
Or you can choose specific tests
to print after testing is complete.

111
00:06:22,114 --> 00:06:23,683
As you can see,

112
00:06:23,684 --> 00:06:28,679
whether PMI Testing is for Quality
Control or In-Service Testing,

113
00:06:28,681 --> 00:06:32,963
the approach to real-time
test labeling is similar.

114
00:06:32,964 --> 00:06:37,171
The DELTA XRF Analyzer’s
real-time labeling feature

115
00:06:37,173 --> 00:06:40,924
is a valuable aid in gathering
reliable test data

116
00:06:40,926 --> 00:06:44,854
that is critical for
accurate PMI testing.
