About GMH Prüftechnik
GMH Prüftechnik GmbH, based in Nuremberg, has been a manufacturer of high-quality testing systems for non-destructive material testing for more than 20 years and is part of the globally active GMH Group. The company designs, develops and manufactures mechanised, semi-automatic and fully automatic testing systems based on ultrasonic technology that can be integrated into existing or new production lines. Its depth of development includes its own engineering and software departments, enabling one-stop solutions – from individual solution development to integration into production. The portfolio includes, among other things, heavy plate testing systems, roller and immersion tank testing systems, and testing systems for hollow shafts, solid shafts, wheelsets and wheels, including mobile systems. Customers come from the steel, railway, automotive, aerospace and wind power industries as well as from the supplier industry; systems delivered are in operation in Europe, North America and Asia. Lifetime support of the systems, with regular maintenance visits, remote diagnostics and offline analysis, ensures availability and continuous further development of the systems.

Testing Methods and Technology
Ultrasonic testing
Non-destructive material testing for early detection of material defects, e.g. in steel components.
Geometry acquisition
Combined with ultrasonic testing in the heavy plate testing system for roll-clad heavy plates.
Layer thickness measurement
High-precision measurement of material distribution in roll-clad heavy plates in a continuous process.
Steel
Main tested material, especially in steel production and processing as well as in the wheel/rail system.
