Project Description
For critical welds and high-consequence assets, “basic inspection” isn’t enough—you need precision, coverage, and confidence. VAIC’s Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) delivers advanced defect detection and detailed imaging that supports accurate decision-making, especially where reliability and acceptance are non-negotiable.
This service is built for clients who value speed without compromise, delivered by certified specialists using advanced ultrasonic technology under strict QHSE execution.
Inspection technique
PAUT uses multiple ultrasonic elements controlled electronically to steer and focus the sound beam at different angles and depths. This enables improved coverage, better defect characterization, and scan-based data recording.
VAIC applies PAUT using advanced ultrasonic systems (from leading manufacturers such as Olympus) and professional scanning tools to ensure repeatable results, strong traceability, and clear reporting—even on complex geometries.
Applications
PAUT is ideal for:
Critical weld inspection on vessels, pipelines, and structural components
Complex geometries (nozzles, weld transitions, restricted access areas)
Fast corrosion scanning and thickness screening strategies
Advanced fabrication acceptance where scan data is required
Turnaround inspections where speed and documentation matter
High-risk assets where better sizing improves decision confidence
