UT v.s. PAUT

Ultrasonic testing and phased array ultrasonic testing have similarities in their primary working principle. However, the similarities end as factors like incident angles, focal points, and the number of transducer elements are very different for both testing methods. 

NDT-KITS: Supplier of SGS

In Oct. 26th 2011, NDT-KITS signed a contract with SGS (www.sgs.com), and formally become their supplier of ultrasonic testing calibration blocks. SGS is the world’s leading inspection, verification, testing and certification company. they are recognized as the global benchmark for quality and integrity.

What is Ultrasonic Transducer II?

Ultrasonic transducer structure

The ultrasonic transducer is a very important part of the ultrasonic flaw detector. The transducer incorporates a piezoelectric element, which converts electrical signals into mechanical vibrations (transmit mode) and mechanical vibrations into electrical signals (receive mode).     The phased array transducers have a frequency ranging from 1 MHz to 17 MHz and have between 10 […]

What is Piezoelectric Transducer?

piezoelectric transducer

  The conversion of electrical pulses to mechanical vibrations and the conversion of returned mechanical vibrations back into electrical energy is the basis for ultrasonic testing. The active element is the heart of the ultrasonic transducer as it converts the electrical energy to acoustic energy, and vice versa. The active element is basically a piece […]

Remote Field Testing (RFT)

Remote-field eddy current tester

  Remote field testing (RFT) is an electromagnetic method of nondestructive testing whose main application is finding defects in steel pipes and tubes. Remote field testing may also refer to as RFEC (remote field eddy current) or RFET (remote field electromagnetic technique). An RFT probe is moved down the inside of a pipe and is […]

How does Ultrasonic Flaw Detector Works?

ultrasonic flaw detector

  A typical ultrasonic flaw detector consists of several functional units, such as the pulser/receiver, ultrasonic transducer, and display devices. A pulser/receiver is an electronic device that can produce high voltage electrical pulses. Driven by the pulser, the ultrasonic transducer generates high frequency ultrasonic energy. The sound energy is introduced and propagates through the materials […]
