Title: SNLA's (Sandia National Laboratories at Albuquerque) high precision ultrasonic scanning system and synthetic-aperature-focusing technique

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7002679

The NDT divisions at SNLA are continually striving to anticipate customer requests by adding advanced test facilities. This paper describes a new ultrasonic testing system being developed in Albuquerque to provide precise scanning of smaller test objects. There are two major subsystems that make up the ultrasonic testing system, a high precision scanner/digitizer and a real-time processing system which automates the synthetic aperture focusing technique. These subsystems are described in the following sections.
