ultrasonic thickness: productivity gains come from the simple things
TRANSCRIPT
Case Study: UltraMATE. How 1 client improved inspection time by 50% and reporting time by more..Created by: John Duenzl
Issue: I send two technicians to site. One to inspect and one to hold the drawings and find the right location on top of recording the data. How can I reduce the time it takes to record the UT thickness readings and not have to re-enter the data in-to our reports
Solution: UltraMATE Prepare for you inspections in advance with the UltraMATE software. Input the job/ calibration/ component data to digitally recall the location and enter the new readings on the device.
Also compare previous thickness readings to make on site decisions as required.
UT Thickness - Simple readings from Spot or Linear readings
- Simplest, sequential numbers 1,2,3…9999
UT Thickness - Grid
- Letters or numbers to identify columns & rows
UT Thickness - Custom Point
- Name both Location & Points at each location
UT Thickness - Custom Linear
- Locations: Coil #- 4 Data points per location
UT Thickness - Custom Grid
- Choose the name for each of a number of separate grid locations.- In this example the current location is “North”
UT Thickness - Boiler File
- Rows are named with Alpha Text- At each elevation/Tube location: multiple readings- Readings are labelled either L,C,R,B
- Left, Centre, Right, Back
UT Thickness - Custom 3D & 4D
For use in designing a survey - Example: Wall
- Total of 6 (Top, Bottom, North, South, East, West)- Second level : the elevation on each wall- Third level: section at each level- Fourth level: test point at each section
