MITECH MT160 Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge
Overview
The model MT160 is a digital ultrasonic thickness gauge .Based on
the principle of ultrasonic principle, the instrument is capable of
measuring the thickness of various materials, such as metal,
plastic, ceramic, glass and many other good ultrasonic conductors.
It of all kinds of materials. Compared with the traditional
measurement methods, the advantages of ultrasonic thickness gauge
is exposed to one side of the workpiece to complete the
measurement. Its unique non-destructive testing performance provide
the perfect solution for the thickness testing of closed pipes,
containers, etc. It is widely used in pertroleum , chemical
,metallurgy, shipbuilding, aviation, aerospace and other fields
because of monitoring corrosion thinning degree of various pipes
and pressure vessels. It can also be used for precise measurement
of sheet metal and machined parts.

Features
The digital ultrasonic thickness gauge determines the thickness of a part or structure by accurately measuring the time required for a short ultrasonic pulse generated by a transducer to travel through the thickness of the material, reflect from the back or inside surface, and be returned to the transducer. The measured two-way transit time is divided by two to account for the down-and-back travel path, and then multiplied by the velocity of sound in the material. The result is expressed in the well-known relationship.
Where:
H-Thickness of the test piece.
v-Sound Velocity in the material.
t-The measured round-trip transit time.
To make sure the probe working properly, it needs to use couplant
to isolate the air between the probe surface and the measured
workpiece surface. The liquid used for the coupling between the
probe and workpiece is called as couplant.
