Phased Arrays provide high speed electronic scanning inspection capabilities through software control of beam characteristics, inspection with multiple angles with a single electronically controlled probe and many configurations. The Phased Arrays technique can be used for the following applications: raw material production, aircraft, naval, power generation, petrochemical and anything else that currently applies A-scan testing. This course is orientated towards level 2 UT/W inspectors.
