NON DESTRUCTIVE TESTING

Ultrasonic Testing

Ultrasonic Testing (UT) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) method that uses high-frequency sound waves to detect internal flaws, measure material thickness, and evaluate material properties. In UT, a transducer generates ultrasonic waves that travel through the material being inspected. These waves reflect back to the transducer when they encounter interfaces or discontinuities, such as cracks, voids, or inclusions. The reflected signals are then analyzed to determine the presence, location, and size of defects. UT is widely used in industries such as aerospace, petrochemical, manufacturing, and construction due to its ability to provide precise, reliable results without causing damage to the tested materials. It is particularly valuable for inspecting welds, pipes, and structural components, ensuring the integrity and safety of critical infrastructure.
