Phased Array (PAUT) Probes for Delamination Detection

Delamination is the detachment of layers within a composite material, resulting in a loss of its structural stability and resistance. So, it is critical to correctly identify delaminations in a timely manner to guarantee the durability of products and structures.

Ability to detect multiple layers of delamination

Ability to detect multiple layers of delamination

Phased array probes can generate multiple beams, which allows for a full-matrix capture of the data and can be used to produce a C-scan image, which can be used to detect delaminations in multiple layers, giving a better representation of the delamination position and size.

Improved accuracy in delamination detection

PAUT probes can detect small and subtle indications of delamination, which can be difficult to detect with other NDT methods. The use of phased array technology allows for the use of multiple angles of incidence, which can increase the amount of information gathered during the inspection, making it more sensitive.

Improved accuracy in delamination detection

Improved spatial resolution

PAUT probes can provide high spatial resolution which helps to locate the exact position of the delamination and its size.
