ADVANCED   MAINTENANCE   SOLUTIONS

Thickness measurement is necessary to monitor the integrity of the components. Detection of material loss due to corrosion, erosion prior the damage can prevent a significant loss of the machines or parts or even the life. Thus, many industries are required to measure the thickness of their components occasionally.

​

Ultrasonic technology has been applied for thickness measurement as it is fast, flexible, and versatile method. Ultrasonic thickness measurement (UTM) is performed using ultrasonic principle where a probe sends a high frequency sound wave into the materials. When the sound travels to the end of the materials, it will reflect back. Then the UTM instrument will calculate the time travelled, and convert to the material thickness.
