Ultrasonic Testing

Ultrasonic Testing, also called Ultrasonic Flaw Testing or simply UT, uses high frequency ultrasonic waves to detect surface breaking and internal imperfections, measure material thickness and determine acceptance or rejection of a test object based on a reference code or standard. Flaw detection is a fast and accurate inspection method to evaluate internal product integrity. Ultrasound penetrates deeply into materials searching for defects, cracks, delamination, lack of bonding and other discontinuities.

Our personnel is trained in ultrasonic testing techniques and is certified to UT levels I, II, and III and for either the European Norm (EN) or American Society for Nondestructive Testing (ASNT). They can interpret the results on-site and are able to give a quick response, enabling product comparison to the given standard so that appropriate measures can be taken.
