Ultrasonic Tests in the Analysis of the Quality of Tubular Welded Elements

The article presents currently used ultrasonic tests of elements having tubular cross-sections, joined by means of various welding methods. In addition, the article discusses various ultrasonic signals in industrial (primarily automatic) applications in relation to selected technological solutions as well as presents existing industrial stations for testing pipes, machinery parts/components and mechanical elements as well as parts connected with the acquisition of ultrasonic signals.
