May 2009
Tac Technical Instrument Corp, USA, is
the manufacturer of the TacTic™ line of
ultrasonic inspection systems for bars,
billets and tubes. These systems are used
for end-use applications in the making of
precision parts for critical applications.
This equipment, which has been on the
international market for over 40 years, is
used to test material of round, rectangular
or hexagonal cross section. System
configurations are designed to meet the
requirements for high-volume, semi-
automatic production tests or for lower
quantity manual operation.
The company also provides ultrasonic
inspection services in its commercial test
laboratory for the same material types,
with reference block certifications and
transducer profiling.
In addition, the company performs
ultrasonic instrument calibration either in
its lab or at the customer’s plant. Typical
ASTM standards are accommodated,
including A450/A450M, E127, E213, E273,
E314, E317, E1001, E1065, and E2375.
The systems provide material handling
and transducer positioning apparatus
and utilize flaw detection instruments
manufactured by a number of companies.
These are connected to the company’s
specialized instruments to accomplish
such functions as automatic stopping on,
marking, or sorting of defect indications
when required.
