: Are you talking about manual stick welding or mechanized GMAWs welding?
. You can use whatever RT setup you want for the manual welding depending on the speed of your spreads. Maybe a crawler, but for the GMAW-s you ought to be looking into automated UT. Some of the IF encountered with this process, especially with the heavier wall pipe is difficult and sometimes impossible to detect with RT.
