Ultrasonic testing on curved surfaces

🔍 Do you ever perform ultrasonic testing on curved surfaces?

With both butt and T-joints, testing of curved components should always be preceded by a verification of test feasibility and beam coverage.🔧📐

Treating curved surfaces as if they were flat — without accounting for geometry when selecting angles and flaw detector settings — can lead to serious interpretation errors ⚠️ This often results in large areas being left untested 🎯
