Contact Probe

Contact Probe

The ultrasonic contact probe makes the longitudinal waveform to directly contact with the tested material. It just achieve this by using one element to generating and receiving the pulse echo. The purpose of using ultrasonic contact probe is to overcome the roughness of the tested surface and penetrate the thick and strong-attenuation material.

YUSHI Ultrasonic Contact Probe:Strong Support For Accurate Ultrasonic Testing 

What is an Ultrasonic Contact Probe?

YUSHI single crystal ultrasonic contact probe is a core instrument designed specifically for precision non-destructive testing (NDT). It works based on the principle of pulse echo, using a piezoelectric element to generate and receive high-frequency sound waves. This direct contact method aims to provide reliable performance on challenging surfaces and is highly effective for penetrating thick materials or materials with high sound attenuation, ensuring accurate internal defect detection and thickness measurement.

  • Powerful Penetration:YUSHI Probes with 1-10Mhz wide frequency range provide the excellent ability of resolution and penetrating power.
  • Flexible Signal Reception:The single-element design minimizes signal complexity,resulting in clear,interpretable A-scans essential for precise thickness measurement.
  • Multi functional application: The compact and sturdy design allows for contact measurement from various angles, making it suitable for various workpiece geometries ranging from simple sheets to complex technical parts.
  • Durable structure: The probe housing is designed specifically for industrial environments and can withstand strict use, ensuring long service life and stable performance in demanding applications.

How to choose a proper Ultrasonic Contact Probe?

 

First, you need to consider the degree of accuracy required according to your measurement demanding. Because the higher-accuracy thickness measurements may bring a little higher cost to you. We would like to advice you to choose proper probes avoid wasting resources.

Then, you can consider the the conditions of the tested surfaces, such as surface texture, curvature, and geometry.These factors certainly have influence on choices of probes' frequency and elements' size.

Lastly, you need to find a reliable and professional NDT instruments supplier, who can provide you high quality probes with affordable prices. YUSHI will must be your best choice.

When selecting a probe,the following factors need to be considered:

1.The Requirements of Acccuracy: High precision measurements for thin materials demand higher frequencies and smaller element sizes.

2.Material Properties: For thicker or higher-attenuation materials, C1M13 and C2.25M13 will be more suitable.

3.Material Surface and Shape:

Roughness of surface:Larger element sizes and contact surfaces are needed for the better coupling.

The Curvature of workpieces:Smaller contact surface can greatly help to the well coupling between the probe and tested surface.

YUSHI Commitment for Quality & Service

1.Every single contact probe will be tested before the shipment.

2.Each single probe strictly adheres to the ASTM-E1065 standard.

3.Factory Certificate:YUSHI probe posesses the unique serial number and corresponding certificate. The certificate includes the actual measured RF waveform and frequency spectrum of the probe.
