ULTRAPIPE - Automated UST-Equipment for Big Diameter Pipes
UTE “ULTRAPIPE” is intended for automatic ultrasonic testing (UST) of weld, heat affected zone and pipe end areas of the big diameter pipes.
Part number:
Supplier:
ZAO ULTRAKRAFTDescription
MAIN ADVANTAGES OF EQUIPMENT
On-bead, TOFD Realization of additional sonic test circuits regulated with the special requirements of the Pipe Buyer, namely the testing of transverse flaws in the heat affected zone; On-bead, TOFD;
Testing of the pipe end areas for the lamination, radial (longitudinal) flaws on the width of the scanning area from 50 mm to 300 mm;
Automatic calibration of the Equipment in line, with automatic loading and unloading of calibration block;
The Equipment provides the testing by using of conventional piezoelectric probes as well as by using of Phased arrays.
