UT Thickness (UTT) is a non-destructive testing method that uses high-frequency sound energy to measure materials’ thickness and perform straight beam flaw detection. The process of UTT involves the introduction of an ultrasonic beam into the test object, perpendicular to its surface, and the round-trip time is measured. Quantifiable information can be gathered for detection of localized or general wall-thickness changes.
