Ultrasonic Thickness Testing - UTT

Ultrasonic Thickness Testing operates on the principles of sound wave propagation, utilizing high-frequency sound waves to penetrate materials and measure their thickness accurately. During the UTT process, a transducer emits ultrasonic pulses into the material, and the waves reflect back from the far surface or any internal boundaries. Our sophisticated equipment records the time taken for the waves to return, providing precise measurements of the material's thickness. UTT is particularly beneficial for assessing the integrity of pipes, tanks, pressure vessels, and other assets, as it allows us to detect corrosion, erosion, and material thinning.

UTT has found widespread use in various industries, where accurate thickness measurements are vital for safe operations and compliance with industry standards. At Steel City NDT, we employ UTT to assess asset integrity in industries like oil and gas, petrochemicals, power generation, aerospace, above ground storage tanks (ASTs) and maritime. By detecting wall thickness variations, corrosion, and erosion in pipelines, tanks, and other components, we enable our clients to address potential weaknesses proactively and avoid catastrophic failures. Additionally, UTT plays a crucial role in quality control during the manufacturing process, ensuring that fabricated materials meet specified thickness requirements and adhere to strict quality standards.
