Phased array transducers
• The standard phased array probes benefit from standardized design that combines reliability, accuracy, performance and competitiveness. • Customized phased array probes offer numerous possibilities for adaptation to the most demanding applications. Array families We classified array transducers in 3 families, depending on their way of use, and mainly the coupling method. This classification corresponds to the most common method of use, but does not limit the feasibility. Most of concepts and functions proposed for immersion probes are adapteble to contact probes and vice versa.
Array types Phased array transducers consist of several elements that can be activated independently (See Phased Array Principle). We have grouped them below according to the main types.
This list is not exhaustive and other types of geometry
of the elements that could be associated with shaping the active
area (cylindrical or spherical pre-focusing, or defined by a matrix
of points), offer a very wide feasibility field |
Since
1989, IMASONIC has offered the widest range of phased array probes
for industrial applications.
