3D ultrasonic inspection equipment “Matrixeye” can visualize defects as 3D image with good resolution by the 3D SAFT (Synthetic Aperture Focusing Technique) imaging method. High-speed 3D SAFT imaging process can be achieved by the developed parallel signal process of the ultrasonic echo data collected by a linear or a matrix-array ultrasonic probe. It has the following features. •3D image with ...

Recent studies to determine the probability of detection of nondestructive exami r.ati on methods by the Air Force indicate that these capabilities are severely limited. One of the factors contributing to the insufficiency of ultrasonic testing is related to a general lack of versatility and capability of commercial ultrasonic equipment. Inadequate instrument reliability, inconsistent component...

Increasing number of ultrasonic applications reflects the potential of this method. As broader is the range of areas involved in ultrasonic measurement, the more essential becomes the question of a universal concept of the equipment for generating and acquiring the ultrasonic data. Ideas and problems met here we would like to share in this publication. The ultrasonic non-destructive evaluation ...

We describe the design and construction of a relatively simple, inexpensive laser interferometer system for accurate measurements of ultrasonic surface displacement waveforms in reasonably friendly environments. We show how analysis of a single waveform can provide both the calibration constant required for absolute measurements and an estimate of the uncertainty of these measurements. We demon...

When a dentist prepares a vital tooth, it is very important to know the distance between the prepared surface and the pulp chamber wall, and now we have developed ultrasonic diagnostic equipment which can indicate the nearness of these two boundaries by measuring the thickness of the remaining dentin. This equipment can be used to measure the thickness of the remaining dentin between the prepar...

Electromagnetic ultrasonic transducer is the core component of the electromagnetic ultrasonic testing equipment. This paper establishes a three-dimensional model of the electromagnetic ultrasonic transducer used to generate Lamb wave, then by uniform design experiment and finite element analysis, the paper obtains the law between the eddy current density, the conductor width, length of the coil...

Partial discharge (PD) is the main cause of electric equipment degradation. PD location can provide the scientific direction and analysis for equipment condition monitoring. The phased-ultrasonic receiving-planar array transducer for PD location in transformer is studied in this paper. The operation environment and material properties of transducer are analyzed. The center frequency of transduc...
