What is Ultrasonic Testing?
  • Ultrasonic Testing uses high-frequency sound waves sent from a transducer into a material. These waves travel through the material and bounce back when they hit flaws or boundaries. A detector picks up the echoes, allowing for accurate measurement of thickness, flaw depth, and type. This method is highly sensitive, fast, and works well on most materials that transmit sound efficiently.
