Fingertip Angle Beam Transducers and Wedges

Technisonic offers Fingertip Removable Angle Beam Quick Change Transducers (ABFQ) in two series:  General Purpose (GP) and Composite (CMP). Their chief application is the inspection of welds for flaws with suitable orientation. They are useable on all commercially available flaw detectors. Their small size is ideal for inspection in limited access areas, on curved surfaces, or for reducing the approach distance to the test area. The GP Series is recommended for the majority of testing. For hard-to-penetrate materials such as austenitics, composities, plastics, etc., the CMP series provides greater sensitivity, increased signal to noise ratio, deeper penetration, and better resolution when used with Technisonic Wedges (WFQ).  The threaded transducer body screws directly into the wedge, making wedge changes fast and easy. This design insures positive coupling between the transducer and wedge.  Color coded labels identify the frequency of the transducer.  A microdot connector is supplied.

Technisonic’s Quick Change Wedges (WFQ) are designed to get maximum sound energy into the test material while dissipating internal reflections into a highly atteuative material that is built  into every quick change wedge.

Color coded labels identify the frequency of the transducer. A microdot connector is supplied.

Technisonic’s Fingertip Potted Angle Beam Transducers (ABFP) are best suited for the inspection of limited access areas with all commercially available flaw detectors. The integral wedge design insures excellent signal/noise ratios and their small size allows testing of slightly curved or irregularly shaped surfaces.  Rear mounted microdot connectors are standard but top mounted microdots are available.

Technisonic’s Microminiature Angle Beam Transducers (MMAB) are ideal for testing situations where access to the area of interest is extremely limited. A top mounted microdot connector is normally supplied but rear mounted connectors are available on special order.
