Ultrasonic Flaw Detector

An Ultrasonic Flaw Detector is a device used to inspect materials, like metal or welds, for hidden defects such as cracks or voids. It works by sending high-frequency sound waves into the material; when these waves encounter flaws, they reflect back to the detector. The device analyzes these echoes to identify and locate internal flaws without damaging the material. It's commonly used in industries like manufacturing, aerospace, and pipeline maintenance to ensure structural integrity and safety. This non-destructive testing tool provides critical information about the quality and safety of materials and structures.
