What is Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing?
Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) uses a multi-element transducer probe that fires at multiple angles simultaneously, producing real-time cross-sectional images of welds and components. It combines the sensitivity of conventional UT with the visualization of radiography — without radiation hazards.
