WAVE
Overview
The WAVE interactive flaw detector integrates the latest technologies available in order to create a revolution in the ultrasonic non-destructive testing equipment market.
Features
Interactive Scan Plan
The WAVE interactive scan plan has been developed to ease diagnostics on the inspected part. The scan plan can reproduce complex geometries such a Curved parts and T-joints. Combined with a real-time Raytracer, this unique feature facilitates the distinction between a real flaw and a geometrical indication. Thus avoiding unnecessary repair.
Import Custom Parts
The WAVE can import a custom part in the interactive scan plan. This feature enables the user to visualise sound propagation in complex geometries. All the benefit of the Interactive Scan Plan remains with the addition of removing the limitations that come with predefine parts.
UTouch Technology
UTouch Technology allows your device to operate in the same way as a mobile phone. Combined with rugged components and an intelligent algorithm which makes the distinction between couplant and finger.
Application Concept
The WAVE appliction concept combines conformity and performance which allows the operator to customise the user interface according to their specific procedure.
The intuitive user interface with an easy to use display will guarantee workflow optimisationas well as preventing potential operational errors.
WAVE Companion
Once created, the new app setups are transferred and installed on the unit via wired (USB-C / ethernet) or wireless network. The default app allows access to all functionalities and features where the user can modify the entire settings.

Ultrasonic Rail Solid Axle Inspection with the Sonatest Wave
This type of inspection needs to be done after manufacturing of the axles, as well as multiple times throughout their working life.
Wave Nozzle Inspection
In an A-Scan only view, signals can be difficult to interpret. Small inaccuracies in probe positioning or the angle of reflection may place a signal as a defect in the weld when in fact it is a reflection from the internal wall.
Structural Welds – AWS Inspection
The Sonatest WAVE instrument with its Interactive Scan-Plan can significantly optimise the visualisation of the weld joints since the A-Scan signal is displayed along the sound path, allowing a comprehensive identification of potential defect locations.
Inspection of a Welded T-joint
The most common defects in T-joint welds are cracks, lack of fusion and lamellar tearing all of which can be inspected with conventional ultrasonic methods.
Spot-Weld Ultrasonic Inspection
Sonatest rubber tips are designed to be used with the RDT delay line family and offer an effective alternative to the more traditional approach of water filled contact probes.
Polyurethane Adhesive Bond Inspection
Testing of a single adhesive bond is not always straight forward task using a simple A-Scan.
