05

Wall Thickness Testing

Our NDT Inspectors can accurately measure material thickness of a part even in situations where access is only available to one side of a test piece i.e. a pipe or a tank. They measure this by measuring the velocity of sound from the transducer, through a material, then back to the transducer.
