    This document compares automated ultrasonic inspection (AUT) to radiographic inspection (RT) for weld testing. AUT uses phased array technology and time-of-flight diffraction (TOFD) to detect various weld defects, such as root cracks, porosity, inclusions, lack of root fusion, and incomplete root penetration, more clearly than RT. AUT also provides functional advantages over RT by eliminating radiation, licensing needs, chemical waste generation, and disruptions to production. Technically, AUT allows for better detection of planar defects, tailored inspections, sizing defects in the vertical plane, and fast, cost-effective inspections with auditable results.

    GENERAL QUALIFICATION

    AUT can show defects


    much more clearly and
    less subjectively than RT.
    AUT vs. RT ADVANTAGES
     Many functional advantages from switching to AUT
    No radiation
    No licensing
    No chemical wastes
    Minimizes data storage problems
    Minimizes materials handling issues
    Minimizes production disruptions

     Benefits depend on application.


    AUT vs. RT ADVANTAGES
     Many technical advantages for AUT, especially combined
    Phased Arrays and TOFD:
    Better detection of planar defects
    Tailored inspections
    Can size in vertical plane for ECA
    Fast and cost effective
    Results auditable
    Well demonstrated for simple welds, e.g. butt welds.
