Product Overview
TheSonic India PAUT A1 Series CID Wedges are developed for phased array inspection from the inside diameter of curved components where the scan orientation follows the internal circumference. This wedge type is suitable for accessible internal inspection of pipes, nozzles, vessels, shells, and cylindrical components.
The CID wedge profile is designed to match the internal curved surface and support circumferential scanning. Stable contact on the concave ID surface is important for reliable couplant behavior and consistent sound entry.
Manufactured from high-quality Rexolite, the wedge supports effective acoustic transmission. The high-quality damping material helps absorb, control, and divert unwanted ultrasonic sound energy, improving signal cleanliness and reducing wedge noise.
Working Principle / Technology Overview
In CID inspection, the wedge is positioned on the internal surface and the scanning orientation follows the inner circumference. This differs from AID, where the scan direction is axial.
Correct CID geometry helps maintain better internal seating, more stable coupling, and improved signal consistency during circumferential ID scanning.
