One of the most advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques currently in use is phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) services. Without causing any harm, it is used to measure thickness, find defects, and evaluate the structural soundness of important parts.
With the most precise inspection solutions available, A Star Technologies supports industries like manufacturing, power generation, oil and gas, and shipbuilding in India by offering industry-leading PAUT services.
We guarantee high-resolution defect detection, quicker inspection times, and thorough reporting to satisfy your quality and safety requirements by utilizing advanced phased array probes and real-time imaging technology.
How to Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing Work?
An array in phases. Multiple tiny ultrasonic components are used in a single probe for ultrasonic testing. It is possible to steer, focus, and scan the ultrasonic beam electronically without physically moving the probe by carefully regulating the timing (phasing) of each element.
That makes it possible for:
- Full coverage of intricate geometries
- Real-time visuals (linear and segmental scans)
- Extremely precise sizing and flaw identification
- Inspections are quicker than with traditional ultrasonic testing.
