We manufacture a complete range of high performance, high technology ultrasonic probes for general flaw detection and thickness measurement applications. Each probe is made to exacting standards regarding acoustical, electronic and mechanical properties.Our probes are tested thoroughly, typically at three stages of manufacture. The complete ranges of probe types are availablewith a variety of connector styles, case configurations, frequencies and element sizes. This catalogue lists our standard-build angle, frequency and diameter configurations only—other combinations are available on request. |
Our probes are used across a wide range of industries including aerospace, automotive, marine, petrochemical, nuclear, power generation, metal and composite fabrication. Applications include a spectrum of inspection and evaluation testing procedures, i.e. aircraft engine components, nuclear components such as fuel containers, automotive components, petrochemical processing equipment and general high performance, critical materials. |

| TYPES OF TRANSDUCER |
Normal Probe
Single element or straight beam probes are used to measure thickness and to detect flaws on plates, bars, forgings, castings and extrusions. During testing they are applied directly to the flat surfaces of the test material or object. Probes with smaller diameters can be applied to test slightly curved materials. Single element contact probes work by emitting compression (longitudinal) waves into the test material. Due to the fact that this type of transducer comes into direct contact with test materials when being used, the wear plates are constructed with highly durable material.
|
Dual Crystal Probe
Dual element contact (pitch-catch) transducers measure thickness and detect flaws and corrosion in thin materials, especially where near surface resolution is required. They focus very close to the front surface, making them ideal for pitting and corrosion tests, braze inspection and lamination
evaluation. This focusing effect of the dual transducer makes it ideal for pipes and other curved surfaces.
Dual element transducers utilise separate transmitting
and receiving elements, mounted on delay lines that are usually cut at an angle. This configuration improves near surface resolution by eliminating recovery problems. In addition, the “crossed beam” design provides a pseudo-focus that makes duals more sensitive to echoes from
irregular reflectors such as corrosion and pitting. One consequence of the dual element design is a sharply defined distance-amplitude curve. In general a decrease in the roof angle to an increase in the transducer element size will result in longer pseudo-focal distance and an increase
in useful range.
|
Angle Probes
Angle beam transducers allow the sound beam to be introduced into the test material at an angle. Plastic wedges of controlled geometry are attached to the transducer active element in order to establish the desired angle. Sonatest wedges are precision engineered to produce a refracted
shear wave within the test object at specific angles, as indicated on the wedge or transducer housing. The refracted beam angle should be selected to ensure that the sound beam angle will be, as much as possible, perpendicular to the plane of expected flaws. In some cases, the geometry of the test object will dictate the selection of beam angle. With regard to frequency however, the same general rule applies—which is to select the lowest frequency which provides adequate flaw sensitivity. Both material noise and attenuation are minimized at lower frequencies.
