Single-element straight probe – a longitudinal-wave straight probe with a single piezoelectric element.
Direct contact inspection – designed for normal-incidence longitudinal wave testing by placing the probe directly on the workpiece surface. The contact face is typically made of hard, wear-resistant material with excellent acoustic impedance matching to metals, offering high sensitivity.
Soft-face option available – the contact face can be equipped with a soft membrane to improve coupling on rough surfaces. The membrane is replaceable, which extends the probe's service life.
Simple operation, high sensitivity, and strong penetrating power.
Applications
Primarily used for ultrasonic flaw detection of metal components with relatively simple structures, where defects are parallel or nearly parallel to the inspection surface.
Ultrasonic inspection of plates, forgings, castings, and billets.
Detection of delamination and layered structures.
Bonding/adhesive joint inspection.
Inspection of thick-section components or materials with high attenuation that are difficult to penetrate.
