Ultrasonic B-Scan and C-Scan Documentation
Ultrasonic B-scan and C-scan document the inspected volume graphically. B-scan shows cross-sections, C-scan provides a top view.
Physical-Chemical Mechanism of Action
Ultrasonic B-scan shows cross-sections of the test volume on a screen. Ultrasonic C-scan creates a 3D top view by overlaying different B-scans.
Metallurgical Relevance & Welding Risks
These methods serve to precisely document porosity, cracks, or other flaws in the material. Missing or inaccurate documentation can lead to misunderstandings and missed repairs.
Workshop Practice & Procedures
Use high-resolution ultrasonic equipment. Make sure the scan area is fully covered. Document all relevant B- and C-scans in detail.
