Ultrasonic thickness measurement (UTM) is a non-destructive testing method used in a wide range of industries to evaluate the wall thickness of tanks, pipes, body parts, plates, beams or support structures, including condition monitoring of corroded surfaces, even with one-side access to the test item.

INDUSTRIAL SECTOR:

• Power generation – measurement of wall thickness in pipelines, pipe elbows, base materials (semi-products), as well as thickness of near-weld zones in pipe joints;
• Aviation – measurement of wall thickness of aircraft steel parts and portholes (windows) with one-side access to the test item;
• Metallurgy and machinery – measurement of wall thickness of slabs and strips; sample check of wall thickness of rolled plates; measurement of wall thickness of boilers, tanks, pipes;
• Pipe industry – measurement of pipe wall thickness; detection of laminations in the pipe wall; recognition of thinned spots in the pipe wall;
• Oil and Gas industry – measurement of wall thickness of pressurized vessels, above-ground pipeline branches, underwater line manifolds of main gas pipelines, gas and oil tanks, as well as pump and valve bodies;
• Railway – thickness measurement of railway wheel disks during their production.
