Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing
(PAUT)

The phased array course provides the knowledge required to perform manual & encoded phased array testing on butt welds in Plates, Pipes and Pressure Vessels. The course covers theoretical and practical aspects on phased array application, its advantages and limitations. The course also covers the requirements for application of phased array as per code requirements. To impart adequate understanding for onsite application, our training is done using all necessary accessories such as calibration blocks, validation samples, encoder, scanners for different size applications, etc.

For this course, we strongly recommend participants possess knowledge in UT weld examination as Level II. At the end of the course, examination shall be conducted. The training programme shall be conducted by experienced PAUT practitioners and academic professionals who have been working in the application of PAUT.

Eddy Current Testing
(ECT)

Eddy current testing is one of several non-destructive testing methods that use the electromagnetism principle. Conventional eddy current testing utilises electromagnetic induction to detect discontinuities in conductive materials. A specially designed coil energised with alternating current is placed in proximity to the test surface generating changing magnetic-field which interacts with the test-part producing eddy current in the vicinity.Variations in the changing phases and magnitude of these eddy currents is then monitored. The electrical conductivity variations or magnetic permeability of the test-part, or the presence of any discontinuities, will cause a change. The changes are shown on a screen for easy interpretation.
