Ultrasonic examination has been utilised as a non-destructive testing method to carry out a wide variety of testing tasks.  Ultrasonic examination uses high frequency sound energy enabling the equipment to conduct internal examination and make measurements of a component.

It is also a commonly accepted method of checking the wall thickness of pipelines, tanks, silos and vessels, which are suspected of being eroded internally or where access is restricted to one side of the material.

Ultrasonic testing equipment is small, lightweight, portable and presents no safety hazards, therefore it is ideal for carrying out examination of raw materials, components, welds etc.., together with corrosion monitoring and thickness measurements on components in service.

Independent Integrity Inspection Limited (INDEI) offer a range of ultrasonic testing services including thickness surveys, weld examination, forging and casting component inspections, condition monitoring and critical defect sizing.
