Composite Contact Focused
Transducer (CCFT) does not require focus lenses to obtain the focusing
effect. Instead, the concave element itself can reach the focusing
result to improve the transverse resolution and focal spot sensitivity.
Meanwhile, it features high axial resolution, high sensitivity, and high
signal to noise ratio. Therefore, CCFT improves the clearness
of the acoustic images. CCFT can also increase the precision of welding
inspection and the signal to noise ratio of coarse grain materials.
Features:
-
CCFT features high transverse resolution, high axial resolution, high sensitivity,
and high signal to noise ratio.
-
Instead of using acoustic lenses, concave element itself can obtain the focusing result.
-
Cylindrically focused and spherically focused transducers can be easily made by the flexible
composite materials.
-
There is less energy loss due to the similar acoustic impedance between epoxy and composite material.
-
Reliable acoustic match between CCFT and wedge can improve the efficiency of the transducer.
-
Increased transverse resolution and axial resolution can improve the clearness of
acoustic images including C-scan, P-scan, B-scan, and 3D-scan.
