Corrosion Mapping with HydroForm
What Is It
Corrosion Mapping That Works Beyond Flat, Smooth Surfaces
Rough surfaces and curved components can make it difficult to maintain consistent contact during conventional ultrasonic scanning. Gaps in coupling can lead to gaps in the inspection data, leaving areas of wall loss harder to assess.
IRC Engineering uses the HydroForm scanner to map remaining wall thickness across challenging surfaces. Its water-column coupling system helps the probe maintain a reliable ultrasonic connection while scanning directly on the component. The result is a detailed, colour-coded thickness map that shows where corrosion may need closer attention.
Our HydroForm inspections cover:
- Corroded plate
- Vessel shells
- Curved piping
- Small-diameter piping
- Difficult surface areas
Why HydroForm
Why Choose HydroForm Corrosion Mapping?
HydroForm combines consistent coupling with phased array ultrasonic testing to collect detailed thickness readings across an inspected area.
Reliable Coverage
The water column helps maintain coupling on rough or uneven surfaces where a conventional scanner may struggle.
Clear Thickness Data
High-resolution, colour-coded maps make wall loss easier to locate, report, and monitor over time.
