MRUT describes a suite of techniques that permit inspecting an area between approximately 25mm to 3m from the location where the inspection is performed. MRUT can be performed on pipes, plates, rods, and components with irregular geometries. MRUT complements LRUT (Long Range UT) by covering the near field area where LRUT cannot be used with much higher resolution and detection capabilities.
Defect Detection in Railroad Wheels
Guided wave magnetostrictive sensor permits detection of surface and sub-surface defects on the tread of a stationary railroad wheel from a single point of inspection.
Light-Coated Free Standing Pipe Inspection
Uses axial scanning on free-standing pipes with none or light coatings (<3-4mm) for fast and accurate defect detection around the circumference of the pipe.
Corrosion Under Pipe Support (CUPS)
Axial and/or Circumferential scanning to detect and measure corrosion under pipe supports.
Inaccessible Area Inspection
Side inspection is used for the detection of defects in inaccessible areas up to 3m (10’) from the sensor.
