Re: [MW:13457] NDE FOR BUTT WELD

Use small cassette to fit the weld and not bend the film also use UT straigth and angle beam to cover the entire volume of weld. Regards

I would not suggest to bend the film cassette. UT using angle and straight probes is more appropriate. However I am surprised that there is no a tapered transition as required by most of the codes in case of unequal thickness

Can somebody write me about the possibility of either radiography OR Ultrasonic testing of attached butt weld?

 

We have tried to carry out radiography with and without non metallic support as in the attached snaps but image is not clear.
