Ultrasonic Testing (UT) - Ultrasonic Flaw Detection

Ultrasonic Flaw Detection

The ultrasonic inspection method is used for either the detection of
subsurface flaws and irregularities in castings, forgings and welds,
or for thickness gauging when only one side of component is accessible.
Utilizing the very latest digital equipment our highly skilled technicians manually
scan the components using high frequency sound waves.
This highly sensitive method is most versatile since it can be applied to wide range
 of components of all shapes, sizes and thicknesses.

Typical Applications:

The detection of subsurface flaws and irregularities in castings and forgings
Welds in pressure vessels, pipe lines and structures
Rolled plate for the detection of laminations and other defects
Shafts and other components liable to fatigue cracking
Checking of bonding efficiency between various materials
Measurement of metal thickness from one side only, over a wide range of thicknesses, to
determine the extent of corrosion or erosion
