Ultrasonic, TOFD and phased array flaw detector and thickness gauge

Detect flaws, measure thickness and determine material properties in components including forgings, composites, plastics and welds

Incorrect or missed inspections put your component’s integrity at risk. Proceq’s advanced ultrasonic flaw detectors and thickness gauges provide intuitive measurement solutions to ensure part integrity. The Proceq Flaw Detector 100 is a flexible high tech ultrasonic inspection instrument. The basic UT model can be upgraded with the Ultrasonic Time of Flight Diffraction (TOFD) and Phased Array (PA) modes anytime and anywhere, even on site. The Zonotip, with its shockproof housing and fast processor, delivers reliable thickness measurements of materials including ferrous and non-ferrous metals, polymers, composites, glass, ceramics and epoxies.

Description The Proceq Flaw Detector 100 has a large display to show the A-scans from the two onboard channels. The use is simple and efficient due to wizards and an active help file. 3D scan plans assist in creating inspection procedures and analyzing the results. The upgrade to Proceq Flaw Detector 100 TOFD enables the TOFD application to deliver the highest performance. Two channels make it possible to inspect thick parts in a single pass. High frequency probes can be used to get accurate defect sizes. The upgrade to Proceq Flaw Detector 100 PA 16:16 will bring a broad spectrum of applications that can be setup, performed and analyzed using the inbuilt wizards and user guides. For users wishing to learn about the phased array capabilities, or to show a sectoral scan. The upgrade to Proceq Flaw Detector 100 PA 16:64 allows even more flexibility in your setup. The additional multiplexing is beneficial for performing L-scans in corrosion mapping and when testing the integrity of large composite panels The Zonotip is for thickness testing of a wide range of materials. Its high-contrast color display ensures visual control of the inspection process. The Zonotip+ includes a smaller single-element transducer which is suitable for measuring in areas where access is limited.
