Dive into Ultrasonics
Ultrasonic NDT is a method used to evaluate the properties of a component or system without causing damage. The technique utilises Wireless Ultrasonic Inspection waves to detect flaws or defects in materials, and it is commonly applies to industries such as power generation, petrochemical and structural assets (bridges) among others.
Electromagnetic Acoustic Transducers (EMAT): A Game Changer
EMAT instruments are unique ultrasonic devices that generate waves without direct material contact. They blend electro-magnetic fields and mechanical disturbances to produce ultrasonic waves, offering a streamlined inspection process.
Uses of the EchoPulse Connect Ultrasonic System
Crack Monitoring
EchoPulse facilitates precise crack monitoring, offering early detection and assessment of structural defects in a wide range of industrial settings.
Corrosion Monitoring
EMAT Ultrasonic technology excels in corrosion monitoring applications, providing crucial insights into the corrosion rates and integrity of vital infrastructure components.
Flange Integrity Monitoring
EchoPulse Connect ensures the integrity of flanges through continuous monitoring, helping prevent leaks and ensuring the reliability of critical connections in industrial systems.
Surface Condition
EMAT is less sensitive to surface conditions than conventional UT. This means that it can be used on rough, rusty, or scaled surfaces without much surface preparation.
High Temperature Applications
EMAT can be used on hot surfaces (e.g., in-service inspection of boilers) without having to shut down operations or wait for the material to cool.
Benefits of EMAT Instrument Ultrasonic Inspection
Directional Flexibility
EMAT can be easily configured to generate waves in different modes and directions, providing versatility in inspection applications.
Speed
Due to the lack of a need for couplant and the ability to handle rough surfaces, inspections can often be conducted faster with EMAT instruments.

Ultrasonic Structural Monitoring Testing Project: PileSense
Sheet pilings have diverse applications, from harbor docks to flood barriers and jetties. Given the harsh conditions they are exposed to, regular assessments are essential to maintain their structural soundness. Traditional inspection methods primarily focus on the visible part above the ground, often neglecting the condition of the submerged section. To address this limitation, EchoPulse was designed to hardness the power of ultrasonic guided waves, offering a comprehensive inspection from the topmost to the submerged portions of the structure.
