Ultrasonic nondestructive testing, also known as ultrasonic NDT or simply UT, is a method of characterizing the thickness or internal structure of a test piece using high-frequency sound waves. The ...

In the medical applications of ultrasonic imaging, sound waves of high frequency are usually employed to produce in-depth cross-sectional images of internal organs. Special multi-element transducers ...

Most ultrasonic flaw detection and thickness gaging are carried out at normal temperatures. However, sometimes a hot material requires testing, for example, in process industries. In these instances, ...

A scanner ensures that ultrasonic probes stay properly aligned as they move over the surface of the inspection area. Scanners with motorized actuator arms, suction cups and adjustable, flexible tracks ...

Ultrasonic testing, or UT as it is commonly called, is the procedure of introducing a high frequency sound wave into one exterior side of a material, and reflecting the sound wave from its interior ...

ABSG Consulting Inc. (ABS Consulting) signed an exclusive global licensing agreement to offer an innovative ultrasonic non-destructive testing (NDT) solution that supports expanded use of composite ...

As the newest generation of composites-intensive aircraft comes online — notably Boeing's 787, and Airbus' A380 and A350 — nondestructive testing (NDT) of composites will assume unprecedented ...

Ultrasonics refers to signals that are above the human hearing span (>20 kHz), and usually in the 40- to 70-kHz range. These signals are used like radar—they’re radiated toward a target and reflected ...
