Phased array ultrasonic inspection has become an indispensable tool in the aerospace industry, contributing to the safety and reliability of aircraft components.
In this article, I will explore the basic principles of phased array ultrasonic inspection and predominantly its applications within the aerospace sector.
The transition from ICE to electric powertrain requires a complete review of the approach to quality and process controls. Some existing checks for ICE find even more extensive applications for the EV sector.
This article provides a brief introduction to a dynamic micro-indention measurement technique which can be useful to characterize materials that are hard to analyze using the well-known Vickers and Knoop measurements described in ASTM E364.
One of the more frequent questions we receive is: I am tapping a ¼-20 UNC 2B internal thread with an “H13” tap, what gage do I need to inspect the threaded holes in my parts after tapping?
Quality materials are the route to quality products. For a product to be fit-for-purpose and meet legislative and commercial requirements it must check several boxes.
Advanced 3D digitalization technologies offer a solution with a modernized NDT alternative that saves time and money and unlocks access to more information in a single measurement session.
Whether you are an OEM testing an airframe or a third tier supplier testing high strength alloys, it is crucial to use a reliable tensile testing system that can produce repeatable results.
