Advanced Ultrasonic

From its inception, TechCorrs’ business model has been based on advanced technology. We make extremely large investments in our future, and the future of our clients as a result of this model. We pride ourselves in being capable of providing world class, leading edge technology by the most highly trained professionals. Utilizing ultrasonic technology, the technological support that we can offer our clientele is insurmountable. Some of the Advanced Ultrasonic Services we offer are as follows:

• Corrosion Mapping both manual and automated. Corrosion causes the degradation of surface materials and could accelerate the replacement of assets and involve substantial, unplanned expenses. It is a fundamental method in most non-invasive inspection strategies and techniques. This is the most highly efficient, cost effective means for collecting, and analyzing thickness data over very large areas.
  
  
• Time Of Flight Diffraction (TOFD) offers improved ultrasonic inspection using the time-of-flight diffraction (TOFD) methodology. TOFD provides tremendously reliable and rapid single-pass weld inspection and it is relatively unaffected by flaw size, location, position or shape which sometimes may impact conventional reflection-based UT flaw detection and sizing techniques.
  
  
• UT Phased Array Testing is a very specialized type of Ultrasonic testing that utilizes very sophisticated multi-element array transducers that steer high frequency sound beams through a test piece. The returning echoes are mapped producing detailed images of the internal test component.
  
  
• Long Range Guided Wave Ultrasonic Technology (LRGWUT) The guided wave concept is based on low-frequency guided ultrasonic wave technology that provides 100% coverage of the pipe-cross section. Under normal conditions, large amounts of pipe can be screened from a single location. The transducer array itself is applied externally and provides valuable integrity data where access is largely limited such as underground pipelines, insulated pipes, and dyke wall penetrations.
