1957 - Sound Inspection Developed in Britain is a system for testing materials called Autosonics. It consists of a probe that transmits sound into the material in a sequence of energy pulses. The pulses, registered on a cathode ray tube, show up any flaws. The manufacturers claim that a wide range of materials can be inspected automatically by the system with consistent and accurate results at speeds many times greater than those possible with other techniques. Picture shows:- The probe is set up to inspect metal immersed in water. Manufacturers: Kelvin and Hughes Ltd. 2 Caxton Street, London S.W.1, England
