Ultrasonic Testing (UT)

Ultrasonic Testing (UT) uses high-frequency sound waves to penetrate a multitude of different materials and is utilized in many industries. Aerospace, Aviation, Oil & Gas, Energy, Manufacturing, and Automotive industries deploy this method for accurate measurements of material thickness, as well as flaw detection in welds, metals, plastics and a variety of different materials.

Electromagnetic Testing (ET) – Eddy Current

Eddy Current Testing (ET) works by driving an alternating current through a coil, which creates a changing magnetic field. When this coil is placed near a conductive material, the magnetic field induces tiny circulating currents called eddy currents, just below the surface of the material. These eddy currents are disturbed by cracks, material loss, or changes in conductivity, and the resulting signal changes are used to identify flaws or measure properties. Aerospace, Aviation, Oil & Gas, Energy, Manufacturing, and Automotive industries deploy this method for detecting surface and near-surface cracks, sorting materials, and measuring coating thickness in metals and alloys.

Online Training Disclaimer:
Hands-on training for each method or technique may be estimated separately, depending on the customer’s needs and specific program requirements. A passing grade on the final course assessment is required for a Course Completion Certificate to be issued.

Please note: A Course Completion Certificate is not a certification. Employer-based certifications are issued solely by the employer’s Certifying Authority, with approval from the employer’s Responsible Level III to trainees or technicians who have met all qualification and certification requirements outlined in the employer’s written practice. These requirements typically include documented and approved training and experience hours, as well as passing grades on all required general, specific, and practical examinations.
