Quick Change Shearwave Transducers & Wedges. (Wedges can be contoured)
Longitudinal and shearwave angle transducer with detachable wedges. Threaded probe end for quick and easy change of angle wedge.
Available in 2.25, 5 and 10MHz frequency.
SONATEST Quick Change Shear Wave Transducers (QC)
Description
SONATEST QUICK CHANGE SHEAR WAVE transducers are designed for use in inspections where different frequencies are required using the same wedge, or where different angles are required using the same frequency transducer. Ideal for limited access and curved surfaces.
Features
- Circular, lead metaniobate crystal
- High damped for wide bandwidth (PQC)
- Medium damped for medium bandwidth (QCG)
- Screw thread for quick change, use with threaded QW wedges
- Circular composite crystal (PQC)
Wedge Features
- Threaded quick change wedge for use with QCG and PQC transducers
- Wedge beam shear wave contact probe
- Circular, lead zirconate titanate crystal
- Damped with bandwidth
- Axial and circumferential ID or OD profiling available
Frequent Applications
- Aerospace
- Castings & Forgings
