Details

AI solutions for ultrasonic testing have thus far focused on mechanized setups where analysis is performed after data acquisition. However, a large portion of ultrasonic inspection is performed in real time using manually operated equipment, where the benefits of the new algorithms are not available. With the increasing popularity of advanced scanning techniques like PAUT and PWI-TFM however, it has become viable to perform AI analysis of real-time ultrasonic testing.
In this technical presentation, we present ultrasonic equipment with real-time AI evaluation. We show use cases and cover the maturity level of this new technology and how it will affect the workflow of the future inspector.
