Industry solutions, landing pages and articles on Olympus — step wedge for thickness gauge calibration
Where it is used
Typical tasks
- Calibrating 27MG, 45MG, 39DL PLUS and 72DL PLUS gauges
- Accuracy checks in the field
- Thickness calibration of flaw detectors
Overview
A step wedge is a reference block with several areas of known thickness. It is used to calibrate an ultrasonic thickness gauge or flaw detector for zero and sound velocity and to check it before work. The wedge material and thickness set are chosen to match the inspected part.

Two-point calibration procedure
- Place the transducer on the thin step and perform zero calibration.
- Place the transducer on the thick step and calibrate velocity.
- Check the reading on an intermediate step.
Applications
- Calibrating 27MG, 45MG, 39DL PLUS and 72DL PLUS gauges
- Accuracy checks in the field
- Thickness calibration of flaw detectors
