Key Products/TechnologiesKeyProducts/Technologies
Ultrasonic Thickness Gages: The ECHO series (ECHO 7, ECHO 8, ECHO 9) consists of portable devices specialized in corrosion and precision thickness measurement. The ECHO 9 model features live A-Scan, echo-to-echo (to ignore coatings), B-Scan, a datalogger with up to 32GB SD card memory, Excel interface, and a vibrate-on-alarm function, all within a rugged IP67-rated design. The ECHO 7 is a precision thickness gage with 1-micron resolution, capable of measuring paint as thin as 0.001 inches over plastic or steel. The EHC-09 series offers both monochrome and color display models, including a 100K datalogger and B-scan capabilities.UltrasonicThicknessGages:TheECHOseries(ECHO7,ECHO8,ECHO9)consistsofportabledevicesspecializedincorrosionandprecisionthicknessmeasurement.TheECHO9modelfeaturesliveA-Scan,echo-to-echo(toignorecoatings),B-Scan,adataloggerwithupto32GBSDcardmemory,Excelinterface,andavibrate-on-alarmfunction,allwithinaruggedIP67-rateddesign.TheECHO7isaprecisionthicknessgagewith1-micronresolution,capableofmeasuringpaintasthinas0.001inchesoverplasticorsteel.TheEHC-09seriesoffersbothmonochromeandcolordisplaymodels,includinga100KdataloggerandB-scancapabilities.
Ultrasonic Flaw Detectors: The ECHO FD and ECHO PRO series are portable ultrasonic flaw detectors used for a wide range of NDT applications, including weld inspection, delaminations, porosity, and dis-bond analysis. The ECHO PRO features a 7-inch touchscreen and keypad dual operation, a 600V pulser, 10-14 hours of battery life, and an IP67 rating, offering FlawView for real-time flaw visualization. Advanced software features such as DAC, AWS, API 5UE, TVG, and B-scan are integrated.UltrasonicFlawDetectors:TheECHOFDandECHOPROseriesareportableultrasonicflawdetectorsusedforawiderangeofNDTapplications,includingweldinspection,delaminations,porosity,anddis-bondanalysis.TheECHOPROfeaturesa7-inchtouchscreenandkeypaddualoperation,a600Vpulser,10-14hoursofbatterylife,andanIP67rating,offeringFlawViewforreal-timeflawvisualization.AdvancedsoftwarefeaturessuchasDAC,AWS,API5UE,TVG,andB-scanareintegrated.
Ultrasonic Transducers: A wide variety of transducers are available, including single-element transducers (contact, composite, delay line, angle beam) with frequencies from 0.5-20 MHz, and dual-element transducers (composite, K85, high-temperature) with frequencies from 0.5-10 MHz. These options allow for selection of the appropriate transducer for specific applications.UltrasonicTransducers:Awidevarietyoftransducersareavailable,includingsingle-elementtransducers(contact,composite,delayline,anglebeam)withfrequenciesfrom0.5-20MHz,anddual-elementtransducers(composite,K85,high-temperature)withfrequenciesfrom0.5-10MHz.Theseoptionsallowforselectionoftheappropriatetransducerforspecificapplications.
Video Inspection Equipment: The DG+ series videoscopes are handheld inspection tools with interchangeable camera cables (2mm, 4mm, 6mm diameters, up to 3M lengths) and 360-degree joystick articulation. The BoresEye series provides a cost-effective, interchangeable system compatible with flexible, articulating, and push rod camera assemblies starting as small as 3.9mm.
