Ultrasonic Testing (UT) Services
The Welding Development Centre can offer exceptional ULTRASONIC Testing (UT) as part of our overall Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) capabilities thanks to our new innovative piece of equipment, the Masterscan D-70.
UT is used for the detection of surface flaws, such as cracks and seams as well as the ability of checking thickness of materials. This type of testing is far superior to any other form of NDT method when detecting or measuring flaws, showing the importance of this type of testing.
About the new equipment
The Masterscan D-70 offers inspectors a fully capable and functional set of tools and software for inspections across all applications. Some of the capabilities of this instrument include, encoded B-Scan, Advanced Thickness Logging and Dryscan capability all within a portable enclosure. Some of the key functions in this particular range of equipment allow for high levels of near surface resolution, penetrating power, and excellent signal to noise ratio.
