Industrial Engineering / UT-1M
Through-coating Ultrasonic Thickness gauge
Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge UT-1M is used for operational non-destructive testing of the thickness of products with one-way access, at the moment this method is the most common in the world for solving such tasks.
The method is based on the property of materials to conduct ultrasound, ultrasonic wawes are excited with the piezoceramic plate in the transducer and penetrates into the material through the couplant, then reflected from the bottom surface of the tested sample, and returns to the transducer. Based on the obtained sound transit time in the material, the device calculates the thickness in accordance with the velocity of propagation of ultrasonic waves in the test sample. The thickness value is displayed on the device’s display, the measurement process takes about 1 second.
NOVOTEST Lab is your real laboratory in your pocket! Optionally with UT-1M (Lab) model only!
The results of measurement, adjustment, calibration and testing reports of the ultrasonic thickness gauge in smartphone – the innovative NOVOTEST application for smartphones based on Android.
The functions of devices have no been so wide before! With the Bluetooth connection, your smartphone is able to control all the functionality of the NOVOTEST ultrasonic thickness gauge without wires. The intuitive interface of the application itself, access to the Internet, email and instant messengers, touch screen, camera, microphone and GPS receiver of the mobile device make the use of NOVOTEST devices much more convenient and versatile.
With NOVOTEST Lab App you are able:

The main advantages of the Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge UT-1M:
WIDE RAGE OF MEASUREMENTS
To measure products in a wide range with one transducer, unlike most similar devices, the Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge UT-1M has a gain control function, which allows operator, for example, with a 5 MHz transducer, to measure steel products in the range from 0.5 to 500 mm and more. Using other probes the full measurement range is up to 1500 mm for steel.
B-SCAN AND AUTOMATIC DEFECT ALARM FUNCTION
To visualize the product profile, if necessary not only point measurement, but also scanning, a B-scan is implemented in the device, which allows the user to visually see thinning and thickening of the wall of the testing object.
Also, for ease of use, the device has an automatic defect alarm function, its meaning is that the operator can select boundary thickness values (minimum and maximum) when crossing the values of which the device will signal through the speaker, and also give a visual signal.
ARCHIVE OF PROBES AND MEASUREMENTS
Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge UT-1M has the ability to save transducer’s parameters (delay line, V-correction, etc.), and also has reference values for the wave velocities of many often measured materials stored in devices’s memory, which allows the user to blindly (without reference data and a sample material for calculating speed) to measure various products with one-way access.
PRACTICAL HOUSING
Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge UT-1M is made in an ergonomic shockproof case, the silicone cover of which prevents the device from malfunctioning in case of a dropped down to floor or ground. Also, the device can be used in extreme climatic conditions, the temperature range of operating conditions is from -20 to +50 ° С.
The device allows user to record the measurement results in the archive of the device, and subsequently transfer them to a PC using special software
