| Phased Array (Specialist NDT)

Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing is an advanced method of Non-Destructive Testing for corrosion mapping or detecting defects in materials.

In contrast to conventional ultrasonic probes, emitting a beam under one angle only, phased array probes are controlled electronically, to swipe a beam through the materials thus covering a larger test area in less time.

Spectra Asset Integrity Management uses Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing for various applications in which include welding inspections, ultrasonic thickness measurements (UTM), corrosion inspection and crack detection.

We are now able to scan an angle of the beam without moving the probe, and replace multiple transducers with a single element that produces various angle beams electronically. Inspecting a part with a variable angle beam also maximizes detection regardless of the defect orientation, while optimizing signal-to-noise ratio.

All our inspectors are level II or level III certified to EN4179/NAS410 or PCN, where relevant.
