Non-destructive testing of steel forgings - Part 3: Ultrasonic testing of ferritic or martensitic steel forgings EN 10228-3:1998

Publication date:   Jan 30, 2004

Scope

This part of EN 10228 describes the techniques to be used for the manual, pulse-echo, ultrasonic testing of forgings manufactured from ferritic and martensitic steel. Mechanised scanning techniques such as immersion testing may be used but should be agreed between the purchaser and supplier. This part of EN 10228 applies to four types of forgings, classified according to their shape and method of production. Types 1, 2 and 3 are essentially simple shapes. Type 4 covers complex shapes.
