Phased array probes are made in a variety of shapes and sizes for different applications. A few types are illustrated here.
Typical phased array probes have a frequency ranging from 1 MHz to 17 MHz and have between 10 and 128 elements. Olympus offers a wide variety of probes using piezocomposite technology, for all types of inspection. This catalog shows standard R/D Tech® phased array probes, which are divided into three types: angle beam probes, integrated wedge probes, and immersion probes.
Other types of probes can be designed to suit your application needs.
Linear arrays are the most commonly used phased array probes for industrial applications. An important aspect of phased array probe design is the active probe aperture.
