Ultrasonic range boosts Ashstead’s NDT inspection rental 10 September 2013

In a move to create a centre of excellence for non-destructive testing (NDT), Ashtead Technology has added ultrasonic inspection technology to its rental instruments range.

Its new USM Go instrument combines a thickness gauge and a flaw detector in a lightweight instrument and is now available for hire with optional thickness and flaw kits.

Ashtead Technology's NDT marketing manager Neil Harrap says users now only need to carry one inspection instrument to perform accurate thickness measurements and flaw detection passes – and with minimal training.

"With a broad range of extremely useful features, such as inspection data recording, the USM Go is an important addition to our rental fleet," comments Harrap.

"The flexibility of this instrument makes it ideal for ... inspection applications, including industrial engineering, metal fabrication, railway, aerospace, power generation, petrochemical and the automotive sector."
