Our equipment is used throughout the world with systems in the countries shown on the map below - the green circles show countries where we have delivered and installed complete systems - those in orange show additional countries where third party system integrators have installed USL ultrasonic equipment.

We take pride in the fact that we have been able to achieve things where others have either failed or not been able to attempt - for example in building machines with high speed contour following of complex shapes 

USL design and manufacture all parts of these systems in-house, including mechanical scanning units, electronics and software. The electronics and data acquisition sub-systems are built around a range of PC expansion boards of USL design. These include Pulser Receivers  (single and multi channel applications), analogue-digital converters, digital signal processors, motion control boards and other high speed data acquisition products.

In our factory we have a range of sophisticated CNC controlled sheet metal working machinery, also in-house facilities for high quality fabrication and welding of structures in mild steel, stainless steel and aluminium alloys.
