Detect the tiniest cracks and gaps in your products with ²ÝÁñÉçÇø's advanced ultrasonic testing services, using soundwaves for accurate reporting of defects, ensuring better product safety. We offer a full suite of UT inspection services for test specimens of virtually any size, across a variety of industries, including Aerospace, Oil & Gas, and Power Generation.
What is Ultrasonic Testing and why do you Need it?
Ultrasonic testing, also known as ultrasonic NDT (non-destructive testing) or simply UT, is a very powerful non-destructive test method using sound waves to detect cracks and defects in parts and materials. It can also be used to determine a material’s thickness, such as measuring the wall thickness of a pipe.
This method can help locate flaws too tiny to be found by many other NDT methods, by producing images that are more clearly defined and exposing issues that are deeper than surface level. Such sensitivity makes ultrasonic testing highly precise and accurate. It is also a practical and flexible method, with portable testing variants as well as laboratory options depending on your requirements. When used to assess very thick materials, ultrasound typically requires less exposure – and subsequent risk – than other possible methods such as radiography.
