Efficient and reliable ultrasonic inspection of large, polar-symmetrical forgings and castings, such as forged compressor and turbine disks employed in gas turbines for electric power production.

Highly functional and rugged mechanics including a unique servo-driven part rotating platform, which allows for part chucking vertically and accessibility to all surfaces. A selection of special purpose manipulators mounted on a robotic arm can accommodate a high number of transducers allowing enhanced inspection coverage and shorter inspection time.

Specially designed transducers are supplied with the systems including: T-R probes with excellent near-surface resolution, high-sensitivity longitudinal, angled longitudinal and shear wave probes with superior penetration and resolution. 

ScanMaster systems are completely integrated and include highly reliable low noise motion control, multi-channel ultrasonic instrumentation and sophisticated motion control and data collection software. These systems permit fully automated part inspection including set-ups, data acquisition, data analysis and hard-copy reports.

Multiple data collection gates allow for real-time C-scan and B-scan imaging, and a toggle-selected A-scan presentation.

ScanMaster’s software provides features such as automatic “Stop on Defect”, statistical evaluation of C-scan images, custom-tailored inspection reports, true B-scans and more.
