Olympus NDT
says its new portable ultrasonic scanning system offers users the power
of encoded C-Scan imaging in a hand-activated compact unit. The NDT
FreeScanner system combines ultrasonics and data acquisition software
to create a portable imaging tool for a number of testing applications.
The scanner's five correlated axes are designed to allow the operator
to freely move the transducer holder in virtually any position within
the circular range of the arm. A series of optical encoders inside the
arm joints can track the spatial position of the transducer to provide
fully-encoded planar C-Scans on flat or contoured surfaces.
According to Olympus NDT, users who need portability can configure the
NDT FreeScanner with the EPOCH 4 digital flaw detector and a laptop
computer and users who need it for bench work can combine it with a
Olympus NDT
Pulser/Receiver and an integrated data acquisition PC. For more information,
