Improved detection, expanded inspection range, characterization of defects, increased speed, and enhanced data quality will enable better-informed decision-making.

Phased array ultrasonic testing is a mature and widely adopted technology that enables the inspection of critical components across various industries. In the past five years, new technologies such as full matrix capture and live total focusing methods have become available in most high-end phased array ultrasonic testing devices. These have been introduced into ASME and ISO standards, with dedicated training courses specified in the standards being offered by large training centers. However, technological innovation continues, and non-destructive testing equipment manufacturers are constantly striving to make the inspection process as seamless as possible. In particular, there is an ongoing demand to facilitate the setup of inspections, conduct inspections more quickly, improve the image quality of inspection data, and enable decision-making based on the best information regarding factors specific to the inspection of stainless steel and dissimilar metal welds. *For detailed content of the article, please refer to the PDF document.

In civil engineering sites, there are many instances where sheet boards are used for temporary roads, access roads, heavy machinery work yards, material storage areas, and pedestrian pathways. Traditional steel plates are heavy, which can require large cranes or heavy machinery for installation and removal, increasing the workload depending on site conditions. Hyper CLT sheet boards are civil engineering materials made from wooden CLT for civil use. The 5×10 board weighs about 230 kg, and the 5×20 board weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle even with small machinery, which allows for easier installation without the need for large cranes. They also contribute to reducing the burden of transportation, installation, and removal, as well as improving maneuverability on site. Recommended as a registered technology by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS "TH-250021-A," it is suitable for companies considering civil engineering, civil use, and civil CLT. This material is easy to use for creative proposals in public works, such as alternatives to steel plates, common temporary structures, temporary roads, and curing for material storage areas.

What is an Air Leak Tester? An "Air Leak Tester" is a device that pressurizes the inside (or outside) of a sealed workpiece with air and determines the presence of leaks based on pressure changes. When a master with no leaks and a workpiece with leaks are pressurized, the pressure on the workpiece side decreases, creating a pressure difference between the two. By measuring this pressure difference, the presence of leaks can be determined. Generally, differential pressure air leak testing is widely used, but Fukuda also offers products that utilize direct pressure leak testing and flow meters according to the leak rate, in addition to differential pressure leak testers. Since the air leak tester uses air as the measurement medium, it incurs no running costs and is environmentally friendly.
