Ultrasonics

Ultrasonic Phased Array

Linear Phased Array testing uses ultrasound to inspect piping and drums. Multiple elements generate different angles of sound waves. Detects surface and subsurface defects like cracks and corrosion. Provides detailed imaging for precise defect location and size. More efficient than traditional ultrasonic testing (UT). Can scan large areas quickly and accurately. Used for high-energy components under pressure or temperature. Allows for real-time data collection and analysis. Enhances safety by identifying potential failure points. Non-invasive and can be done without disassembling equipment.

Ultrasonic Shear Wave

Used to inspect high-energy piping, drums, and pressure vessels. Detects material flaws like cracks, corrosion, and weld defects. Employs shear waves for better penetration in thick materials. Provides high-resolution imaging of internal structures—a non-destructive testing method. Offers depth of flaw location and size estimation. Works with complex geometries and thick components. Reduces the need for costly disassembly or shutdown. Can be automated for quicker results. Requires skilled operators for accurate interpretation.

Ultrasonic Thickness

Non-destructive testing method. Uses high-frequency sound waves. Measures the thickness of materials. Detects corrosion, erosion, or wear. Works on metals, coatings, and composites. Applicable to pipes, drums, tanks, and vessels. Requires a coupling medium for sound transmission. Results provide precise thickness measurements. Fast, reliable, and safe for in-service inspection.
