Longitudinal SAW Pipe Weld Inspection
Ultrasonic LSAW Pipe Inspection Solutions
Krautkrämer SNUP-LO
Waygate Technologies’ Krautkrämer SNUP-LO system is designed for automated ultrasonic inspection of the weld seam and Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) on Linear Submerged Arc Welded (LSAW) pipes meeting the needs of API, DNV and other oil and gas transmission pipeline standards.
SNUP-LO systems are the industry standard for high throughput inspection of both conventional carbon steel and CLAD pipe constructions. These systems are built with our industry-leading Phased Array technology or optionally with conventional ultrasonic methods to assess weld quality for process control prior to expansion and hydrostatic testing as well as for the final quality test.
We used to be GE Inspection Technologies, now we’re Waygate Technologies, a global leader in NDT solutions with more than 125 years of experience in ensuring quality, safety and productivity.
