We have provided related parallel sessions below.

A Comparison Sheet of Flaw Detector Specifications

This sheet compares instruments of Karl Deutsch, Panametrics and Krautkramer.
When we tried to bring specifications of different manufactures together on one sheet we ran into the problem of how to handle the different definitions or lack of information of some brochures. We do not want to blame those companies; there exist much worse brochures from many other companies we haven't mentioned here. The situation clearly shows how important the new European Standard EN 126681-1 Instruments is. We hope that this month's NDTnet issue will help you with your next instrument purchase.

Data Sheets of UT PC BOARDS
Originally we wanted to provide a comparison sheet of specifications for this product range, and we struggled with it for a time, but the provided information was even worse than that of the above-mentioned flaw detectors. The products ranged from only semi-functional to a complete stand alone flaw detector. On the other hand, we were not able to add some of them to the provided Comparison Sheet of Flaw Detector Specifications (above). Why? We could do it, but we would have had a lot of empty table cells! Finally we decided to present for each production a separate page:

Glossary of Flaw Detector Specifications
This information can help you when you are struggling with the material provided here. If you are reading elsewhere, just bookmark it, or access the Ultrasonic Encyclopedia where this glossary is housed. You may also want to check your knowledge and test yourself with the Q&A on Ultrasonic Instruments

Plenary Session on Ultrasonic Flaw Detectors
This professional program presents further readings on the subject.
Actually this session is part of our current issue NDTnet 1998 May, Vol.3 No.5 articles included!

Panel Discussion (UTonline Forum)
Chairman Linas Svilainis has worked in the NDT-field at Kaunas University of Technology since 1987. He is responsible for the hardware/software development of NDT/NDE equipment. His knowledge is concentrated on equipment design and ultrasonic data processing such as deconvolution and structural noise reduction. He will lead our exploration of the world of discussions with respect to Ultrasonic Flaw Detectors.
