Scanners
 FlexoFORMThe innovative FlexoFORM scanner makes challenging pipe elbow corrosion inspection easier. The scanner's flexible phased array technology makes it possible to use a single probe to cover the entire range of pipe elbow diameters.  SteerROVERThe SteerROVER is a fully automated, steerable motorized 2-axis scanner capable of performing corrosion mapping in remote locations. When combined with the HydroFORM or the DLA phased array corrosion mapping solutions, it is a powerful tool for C-scan imaging of remaining wall thickness and mid-wall anomalies.  MapSCANNERThe MapSCANNER is a semiautomated, 2-axis corrosion inspection scanner. When combined with the HydroFORM or Dual Linear Array (DLA) phased array corrosion mapping solutions, it is a powerful, efficient tool for C-scan imaging of remaining wall thickness and mid-wall anomalies. MapROVERThe MapROVER is a fully automated, motorized 2-axis corrosion mapping scanner. When combined with the HydroFORM phased array corrosion mapping solution, it is a powerful tool for C-scan imaging of remaining wall thickness and mid-wall anomalies. HydroFORM ScannerAn easy-to-deploy 2-axis encoding PA solution, the HydroFORM semiautomated scanner enables fast and reliable high-resolution data acquisition of large surfaces. To ease raster scanning, it’s equipped with X and Y encoders, a choice of unique water column system with linear PA probe or REX2 DLA probe, and coupling check and position indicators.  ChainSCANNERThe ChainSCANNER™ solution facilitates manual inspection of pipes with outside diameters (OD) ranging from 76 mm to 965 mm (3 to 38 in.) Held by chain links instead of magnetic wheels, the scanner is well suited for weld or corrosion inspection on different types of materials using ultrasonic testing (UT), time-of-flight diffraction (TOFD), and phased array (PA) technologies.  GLIDER ScannerThe GLIDER scanner is a 2-axis (X-Y) encoding scanner for the manual inspection of slightly curved or flat composite surfaces. The scanner, held by suction cups is well suited for raster scanning. Technologies: ECA, EC, UT, PA.  VersaMOUSE ScannerThe VersaMOUSE™ is a scanner designed for linear encoded scans with a phased array probe. The integrated indexing button makes it ideal for 2-D mapping applications such as CFRP flat panel and corrosion inspections. The VersaMOUSE can perform an encoded one-line scan, followed by indexing of the position in the perpendicular direction. Another one-line scan can then be performed and juxtaposed to the previous scan. This process is repeated to produce a complete 2D map of the area of interest.  Mini-Wheel EncoderThe mini-Wheel Encoder is used for the positioning and dimensioning of defects in the scan axis. It can synchronize data acquisition with probe movement. It is also waterproof and compatible with Olympus standard PA wedges. |
Probes
 RexoFORMWith its unique Rexolite delay line and small footprint, the RexoFORM wedge is optimized for phased array 0° and angle beam inspection in limited-access locations. It offers an economical corrosion mapping solution, conforming to a wide range of pipe diameters without the need for a continuous water supply.  Weld Series ProbesWelding inspection probes offer housings combined with a front or top exit cable to avoid interference with the scanner probe holder. These probes are suitable for manual and automated inspections of welds. Our A31 and A32 weld series phased array probes and wedges simplify and standardize weld inspections, offering an improved signal-to-noise ratio.  Passive-Axis Focusing (PAF) WedgesThis patented focusing wedge series helps compensate for beam divergence in the passive direction for pipe girth weld inspection. The smaller beam width enables the sizing of shorter flaws on the scan axis, helping lower rejection rates, and sharpening the images.  Dual Array Probes for WeldOur Dual Linear Array (DLA) and Dual Matrix Array (DMA) probes consist of two linear or matrix array probes wired to the same connector with the capacity to perform transmit-receive longitudinal (TRL) inspection. They are particularly helpful when testing cladded pipes or highly attenuating materials, or for applications with high-sensitivity requirements.  Dual Array Probe for Corrosion
This Dual Linear Array™ probe offers several advantages over conventional ultrasonic dual element transducers for corrosion survey applications. This phased array solution improves productivity through features such as larger beam coverage, faster scan speed, and C-scan imaging with increased data-point density.
 Flexible Phased Array Probe
Our innovative flexible phased array probe enables users to undertake new applications. The FlexoFORM™ scanner uses a flexible array probe to perform corrosion inspection on pipe elbows.
 Manual Contact ProbesOur A24 probe series for manual contact inspection incorporates an ergonomic case design, replaceable membrane, and large square aperture to work in a variety of applications. The 0.02-inch (0.5 mm) thick membrane makes it simpler to verify coupling, glides smoothly on rough surfaces, and is resistant to wear.  EdgeFORMThe EdgeForm phased array solution enables automotive manufacturers to inspect for voids in bonded or glued seams in trunks, hoods, and door panels.  Small-Footprint Probes
Small-footprint probes offer access to confined areas (A00 probe has an 8 × 8 mm footprint).
 Universal Probes
Universal probes are designed to have a low-profile probe/wedge combination for easier access in restricted areas. A wide selection of wedges is available to suit any angle beam application. These probes are used for manual or automated inspection of 6.35 mm to 38 mm thick welds and the inspections of castings, forgings, pipes, tubes, and machined and structural components for cracks and welding defects.
 Near-Wall Probes
Near-wall probes offer a shortened dead zone at both ends of the probe (1.5 mm between center of first or last element and housing edge). They are well suited for composite channel inspections and are used for C-scan inspections of composites (delamination, disbonding, and porosity).
 Deep Penetration Probes
Deep penetration probes are specially designed to generate more powerful ultrasound signal. Thanks to a greater elevation, these probes can be used to perform non destructive testing on thicker carbon steel as well a noisy and granular materials.
 Immersion ProbesImmersion probes are designed to be used with a water wedge or in an immersion tank when the test part is partially or wholly immersed. They are longitudinal wave probes that can be set up for refracted shear-wave inspections using a Rexolite wedge.  Curved Array ProbesCurved array probes are made with a corrosion-resistant stainless steel case and are guaranteed waterproof up to 1 m underwater. The acoustic impedance of these probes matches water. They are compatible with adjustable immersion wedges and are used for the inspection of carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) corners and in addition to the inspection of composite for delamination.  Immersion Corner Wedges for Curved Array Probes
Immersion corner wedges for curved array probes are available in specific radii and angles and also with adjustable radius to fit on various components to be inspected. These wedges are designed to perform manual scans and to accommodate the Mini-Wheel encoder.
 Integrated Wedge and Code Compliant ProbesIntegrated wedge and code compliant probes combine the probe and the wedge in the same housing, offering the lowest-profile probe-and-wedge combination for contact angle beam inspection. Coupling is always good between probe and wedge interfaces, as there is no need for couplant between the probe and wedge. These probes are used for manual weld inspection using 40° to 70° simultaneously in addition to manual inspection of stress-corrosion cracking and AWS and DGS code compliant applications.  Wedges for Angle Beam Probes
The wedges for angle beam probes are available in standard refracted angles of 0°, 45°, 55°, and 60° in steel for angle-beam inspections from 30° to 70°, SW or LW. They come with stainless steel screw receptacles providing a firm anchoring of probes to wedges. The IHC wedge option can be ordered to improve the quality of the inspection: irrigation, mounting holes for the wedge holder to work with any Evident scanner, and carbide pins to increase wear resistance.
