Phased Array, FMC/TFM, and the Future of Ultrasonic Testing on Chat NDT with ASNT
Learn how phased array ultrasonic testing evolved from conventional UT in this month’s episode of Chat NDT with ASNT.
NDT Overview: An Introduction to Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing
Ultrasonic phased array testing uses multiple ultrasonic elements and electronic time delays to generate and receive ultrasound, creating beams by constructive and destructive interference. As such, phased array offers significant technical advantages over conventional single-probe UT.
New Q&A Books Test Knowledge of PAUT and TOFD
Two of ASNT’s newest publications highlight the growth and importance of the ultrasonic testing method (UT), giving UT practitioners the chance to hone their skill set in specific techniques that are widely used throughout industry: phased array ultrasonic testing and time of flight diffraction.
