Ultrasonic Thickness Measurement (UTM) is a non-destructive testing method used to accurately measure the thickness of a component or material without causing damage. It is most commonly applied to metallic materials, but can also be used on a variety of other materials depending on the application.
UTM is widely used across industry to assess material loss, corrosion, erosion, and wear, and plays a critical role in asset integrity and lifecycle management.
Common applications include:
Accurate weld evaluation
Monitoring of tanks and pressure vessels
Inspection of pipework and plant systems
Examination of ship hulls
Assessment of structural steelwork
