Ultrasonic Inspection (UT)

Ultrasonic Shear Wave Testing, Level II

Continue your career in ultrasonic inspection by taking a shear wave Level II class from ND3 where we’ll teach you the nuance of being a top technician. Since the ultrasonic display is difficult for non-practitioners to grasp, your determination must be spot on. Gain the confidence to make calls and stand behind them by learning how to detect, locate, categorize, and size defects using your new skills in shear wave inspection.

Knowing what discontinuities are likely given the manufacturing processes and where these defects are likely to be as well as the techniques used to get the sound to that location will set you apart and have customers ask specifically for you to inspect their parts. Ultrasonic shear wave inspection is based on skill and confidence which is a direct result of great training.

Using conventional angles and a methodical approach to learning, our students are capable and trusted to give data that is meaningful and accurate.

Pinpoint flaws and give good data on weld quality by becoming as good as you can be, enroll in a Level II Shear Wave Inspection course today.
