What is PAUT in NDT? | Uma Industrial
In today’s industrial world, ensuring safety, reliability, and precision is critical. One of the most
advanced techniques in Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) is Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing
(PAUT). At Uma Industrial, we specialize in providing high-quality PAUT inspection services
to help industries detect flaws with unmatched accuracy.
What is PAUT in NDT?
PAUT (Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing) is an advanced form of ultrasonic testing used in
Non-Destructive Testing (NDT). Unlike conventional ultrasonic testing, which uses a single
probe, PAUT uses multiple ultrasonic elements and electronic time delays to generate beams at
different angles.
This allows technicians to scan complex geometries, inspect welds, pipelines, and pressure
vessels, and detect even the smallest cracks or defects in materials.
How Does PAUT Work?
● Multiple Probes: PAUT uses an array of probes that can be electronically controlled.
● Beam Steering: The sound waves can be steered, focused, and swept without moving
the probe.
● High Accuracy: Enables precise inspection of critical areas, even in complex structures.
● Real-Time Imaging: Provides a visual display of the internal structure for better
analysis.
Applications of PAUT in Industries
At Uma Industrial, we deliver PAUT inspection services across multiple industries:
● Oil & Gas: Pipeline inspection, weld testing, corrosion monitoring.
● Power Generation: Pressure vessel and turbine inspections.
● Aerospace: Aircraft structural integrity checks.
● Construction & Manufacturing: Quality assurance of welded joints and metal
structures.
Advantages of PAUT in NDT
● Accurate & Reliable Results – Detects tiny cracks and defects invisible to traditional
methods.
● Cost-Effective – Minimizes downtime and prevents costly equipment failures.
● Safe & Non-Destructive – No damage to equipment during testing.
● Comprehensive Coverage – Can inspect large areas quickly with high resolution.
● Compliance – Meets international safety and inspection standards.
