Straight beam inspection with 3D data presentation (B-, C-, and D-Scan) is performed through continuous measuring and recording of echo amplitudes and reflectors coordinates during XY scanning:
-
True-to-location data recording is provided through mechanics free airborne ultrasound determining of probe location on planar and curved surfaces
-
Complete sequence of A-Scans is recorded along with real time B-, C-, and D-Scan imaging
-
Off-line evaluation of captured B-, C-, and D-Scan images and A-Scan distribution data is featured with:
-
Sizing of defects at any location of scanned volume: coordinates, XY projection dimensions, and area
-
Play-back and evaluation of A-Scans obtained during scanning; echo-dynamic pattern analysis
-
B-, C-, and D-Scan image reconstruction for various Gain and/or Gate and/or Reject settings
-
Slicing of C-Scan and D-Scan images
-
Statistical analysis of B-, C-, and D-Scan image and its conversion into MS Excel
®
spreadsheet compatible with various Risk Based Inspection and Maintenance (RBIM) procedures
Typical Applications:
Weld and base metal angle beam inspection
