Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing

Advanced ultrasonic technology for precise, high-resolution flaw detection

What is phased array ultrasonic testing?

Phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) is a modern, sound-based, noninvasive method used to detect hidden issues — such as cracks and weaknesses — within materials like metals and composites. This technique is particularly valuable in industries such as aerospace, energy, and construction, where even the smallest flaws can impact safety and performance.

How Apex’s phased array testing works

Apex Inspections follow a precise step-by-step process for phased array testing to thoroughly inspect materials:

The advantages of Apex Inspections’ phased array testing services

Our PAUT services offer several significant benefits, making it a preferred choice for critical inspections:

Comprehensive coverage

PAUT can scan large areas quickly and efficiently, offering broad coverage with high resolution. The ability to electronically steer and focus the ultrasonic beams enables us to inspect complex geometries with ease.

Speed and efficiency

PAUT typically provides faster inspection times compared to traditional ultrasonic methods, reducing downtime without sacrificing the quality of results.

Unmatched accuracy

The precise and detailed images of PAUT increase the likelihood of detecting even the smallest defects that could impact safety or performance.

Repeatability

The consistency and accuracy of PAUT make it ideal for repeat inspections, facilitating ongoing monitoring without the risk of introducing variability into the results.

Customized NDT solutions beyond PAUT

In addition to phased array ultrasonic testing, Apex Inspections offers multiple nondestructive testing (NDT) methods tailored to meet the unique needs of different industries.
