SONATEST - ULTRASOUND PHASED - ARRAY INSTRUMENT
X-32 (32 - channel ultrasound phased-array instrument)
General Information
The X-32 is the World's first hand-held, battery-operated ultrasound phased array instrument for NDE. It supports up to 32 channels, both for pulsing and receiving and is compatible with standard Hypertronics connectors.
With its own internal storage, the X-32 can make a real-time continuous recording of the inspection. The X-32 software unit is based on bulletproof Linux operating system.
An inspection using ultrasound phased array technology has many advantages:
- Simultaneous multi-angle and multi-depth inspection with one probe
- Positionable and measurable focusing
- Larger examination coverage without moving the probe
- Improved accuracy
- Pie-shaped image (sectorial scan) analysis
- Very high volume resolution
- 3D inspection of a volume
- Electronic scanning to reduce manual movement
- Reduced inspection time
- Reduced exposure to radiations
- The X-32 optimizes the advantages of phased array with:
It provides:
- Faster inspections
- More reliable inspections
- Easier inspections
