Techshore Inspection Services : Ultrasound Testing Technique- Through-Transmission

 Ultrasonic pulse echo or through transmission measurements are used for a quality control of products in various areas of industry. This technique is sufficiently fast to enable monitoring deviations of thickness or ultrasound velocity under industrial conditions. The estimation of appropriate thickness or ultrasound velocity values is based on measurement of the time of flight of an ultrasonic signal in the test sample. In this case propagation time and distortion of the received signal waveform includes information about measurement object and its internal structure. The delay time estimation is one of the most essential procedures in ultrasonic through transmission measurements. In the case when transmitting and receiving transducers are placed in water tank, two signals are being exploited: the signal transmitted only through water and the signal transmitted through the immersed test sample which has been placed between transducers. The time interval between these two signals is the physical quantity necessary to measure.

  1. Two transducers located on opposing sides of the test specimen are used.  One transducer acts as a transmitter, the other as a receiver.
  2. Discontinuities in the sound path will result in a partial or total loss of sound being transmitted and be indicated by a decrease in the received signal amplitude.
  3. Through transmission is useful in detecting discontinuities that are not good reflectors, and when signal strength is weak.  It does not provide depth information.
