General Industry

Ultrasonic thickness gauges have many uses in industry, some typical applications are:

• Plant Maintenance work
• Condition Monitoring
• Pipe Wall Thickness Inspection
• Measuring Thickness with access from only one side
• Boiler Tube Inspection
• Measuring Thickness of large geometrically complex machined parts
• Component Identification
• Safety Inspections.

Cygnus provides instruments well suited for this kind of work. The gauges will read through paint and coatings and our Multiple Echo technique ensures reliable thickness measurements every time. Typical resolution is 0.05 mm (0.002 inches).

Our 'Deep Coat' mode offers the ability to measure through coatings up to 20 mm thick.

All our gauges are very simple to operate meaning unskilled operators can use them with confidence, no prior ultrasonic testing experience is required.
