Spot-Weld Ultrasonic Inspection
Sonatest rubber tips are designed to be used with the RDT delay line family and offer an effective alternative to the more traditional approach of water filled contact probes.
Spot-welds on automotive components and other structures require inspection for a number of possible failure modes including adhesive (stick) welds, burnt welds and non-fused welds.
Sonatest rubber tips are designed to be used with the RDT delay line family and offer an effective alternative to the more traditional approach of water filled contact probes. They have better life expectancy than water filled tips and the use of rubber dramatically reduces the amount of couplant required to ensure good contact. The flexible surface works exceptionally well on uneven surfaces.
