- Description
Model MSWS Angle Beam Transducers
Model MSWS have captive screws for wedge attachment and angled Microdot connectors for applications requiring low profile. Piezocomposite (C series*) offer superior penetration and signal-to-noise ratio in highly-attenuative and coarse-grain materials.
Angle-Beam Transducers and their wedges, generate shear (transverse) waves at the specified angle in a given test material to detect flaws that cannot be detected by a straight-beam transducer. Typical applications include weld inspection, tube and pipe, shafts, turbine blades and wheel rims. Shear waves are produced by refracting a longitudinal wave in a precision machined acrylic wedge that also minimizes wedge noise.
