The probe design team uses modern
tools to develop, model and engineer
tailor-made ultrasonic probes.
Probes are built to client requirements
for contact or immersion scanning and
can be used at depth of up to 300
meters and temperatures up to 300°C.
Probes can be supplied with couplant
ducts, wear resistant shoes and fittings
to comply with any type of scanning.
Probes can be documented with
characteristics on bandwidth, beam
spread, focus and sensitivity.

Have you ever encountered it, using two probes of the same type to detect the same
defect through the same flaw detector, but the result is different?

We know that small-scale errors are allowed in non-destructive testing, But why is
there a significant difference in detecting the same defect?

Excellent technical indicators start with

The reason is that there is a lack of consistency and

With the continuous development of industrial manufacturing, new technologies and new materials
emerge one after another. The ever-changing requirements of work pieces structure, application
environment and automated production line have put forward the individual requirements of
“on-demand, on-demand measurement” for non-destructive testing. And this situation is testing the
technical strength of non-destructive testing companies and the ability to apply overall solutions,
which is also an important factor in your choice of M2.
