MISTRAS offers pulse-echo, through-transmission, normal/angle beam, contact, and non-contact UT equipment.

Ultrasonic Inspection Technology Applications

Ultrasonic testing (UT) uses high-frequency ultrasonic waves to propagate mechanical vibrations through a material to determine the structural integrity to measure material properties, and property changes.

It is a popular NDT method thanks to its flexibility and applications in both the field and in the lab. Not only can UT identify the presence of a discontinuity, but it can also provide descriptive information such as its size, shape, and orientation, so repairs can be targeted and efficient.

UT is widely used to inspect industrial assets to:

• Detect flaws, such as cracks, inclusions, porosity, and delamination
• Gauge the severity of corrosion/erosion
• Measure wall thickness
• Assess bond integrity
• Estimate grain size and void content

UT technology can effectively identify both surface and subsurface discontinuities in a range of materials, including metals, plastics, composites, and ceramics. Given its reliance on ultrasonic waves, UT does not require assets to be disassembled or cut into samples in order for inspection to be completed. Inspection is safe quick, and efficient, limiting downtime for your facility by promoting real-time defect detection.

UT Equipment Design & Manufacturing

MISTRAS designs and manufactures all major components of our UT solutions in-house. Therefore, we maintain total control over product specifications, pricing, system performance, quality, and customer satisfaction. It also allows us to offer certain custom, made-to-order systems.

We have worked hand-in-hand with our customers and leading industry organizations for decades to develop customized ultrasonic solutions to solve their most difficult asset protection problems.
