Product Overview
Non-destructive testing by ultrasound is a technique that is very close to ultrasound testing used in medicine. We most often talk about ultrasound technique. It consists of sending an ultrasonic wave using a translator into a material which can be metallic, composite, plastic or ceramic and collecting the presence or absence of reflection signals on internal discontinuities of the material (cracks , porosities, inclusions, etc.). It is a volumetric technique as opposed to penetrant testing, magnetoscopy and eddy currents, capable of locating and sizing internal defects. It can be used in manual or automated mode, most often using a single access face, including for large parts and over distances of several meters. Unlike x-rays, it presents no risk in terms of occupational safety and hygiene.
