Olympus Provides Hands-On NDE Instruction to Engineering Students

摘要

Olympus, Waltham, Mass., donated OmniScan flaw detection equipment to LeTourneau University to support the next generation of NDE inspectors. Olympus phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) specialists Curtis Dickinson and Rob Frashefski traveled to the campus in Longview, Tex., to offer students in-person instruction. The class they visited, Nondestructive Evaluation and Testing, is a senior-level course that teaches engineering students the theory and practice of NDE methods. Using the OmniScan equipment to demonstrate, the Olympus experts discussed PAUT theory and practice with the students in the welding/materials joining engineering program.
