True To Geometry Imaging

Weld inspection is typical application benefited through use: upon defining geometry and entering dimensions operator is provided with intuitive ray tracing dialogue indicating actual coverage of the weld for the desired probe position and incidence angle steering range followed by live S-Scan with true-to-location defects indication.
To ensure detection of variously oriented defects several S-Scan and B-Scan insonifications may be performed simultaneously with use of the same probe providing multi-group cross-sectional viewing and recording along whole inspected length

PA AUT Automatic ultrasonic inspection of girth welds

Automatic Ultrasonic Testing (AUT) of girth welds is incredibly demanded as sole codes accepted alternative to radiography. AUT is implemented through scanning of weld along fusion line using several probes situated on the OD surface from both sides of girth weld.
AUT of girth welds is regulated by couple of codes such as ASTM E-1961, API 1104, and DNV 2000 OS-F101, according to which weld volume is divided into multiple horizontal thin slices (zones) in the cap, fill, hot pass, and root areas. Designated zones are insonified one by one through sequence of independent pulsing-receiving shots.
ISONIC PA AUT is packed into rugged portable light weight (6.8 kg only) IP 67sealed case, which is fitted onto the scanner's chassis; regular remote PC connected to instrument through Ethernet provides full control, data acquisition and imaging in real time, thus no big expensive, heavy vulnerable umbilical - just thin light armoured tube carries DC wires and LAN cable, which are connected to the machine through specially designed rotating terminal Probes are connected to ISONIC PA AUT using short cables - comparing to transfer through long umbilical this provides much better signal quality significantly improving signal to noise ratio and dynamic range
ISONIC PA AUT performs complete raw data capturing allowing play-back of all A-Scans obtained during the scanning; this provides full compliance with ASME 2235 Code Case related to use of ultrasonic inspection in lieu of radiography
Typically ISONIC PA AUT comprises 128 PA channels allowing simultaneous use of two 64-elements probes and 16 conventional channels, which are totally separated from PA stuff; it is easy upgradeable to 512 PA channels for future state of the art use, for example matrix PA technology allowing 3D beam steering vs today's 2D. Quantity of conventional channels may be upgraded to 32 or 64 as well.

ISONIC 2005

Portable Digital Ultrasonic Flaw Detector with Recording & Imaging Capabilities Apart from standard digital flaw detector ISONIC 2005 can be used for a variety of ultrasonic inspection tasks.
Thickness Profile Imaging and Recording : It is performed through continuous capturing of thickness readings along probe trace. Complete sequence of A-Scans is recorded along with thickness profile for off-line evaluation at later stage. The recorded thickness readings are also exported to MS Excel® thickness spreadsheet meeting requirements of various Risk Based Inspection and Maintenance (RBIM) procedures.

B-Scan cross-sectional imaging and recording of defects for longitudinal and shear wave inspection : It is performed through continuous measuring of echo amplitudes and reflectors coordinates along probe trace. Complete sequence of A-Scans is recorded along with B-Scan defects images for off-line evaluation at later stage.
CB-Scan horizontal plane-view imaging and recording of defects for shear, surface, and guided wave inspection : It is performed through continuous measuring of echo amplitudes and reflectors coordinates along probe trace.Complete sequence of A-Scans is recorded along with CB-Scan defects images for off-line evaluation at later stage.
Typical Applications :
  • Long range pulse echo and CHIME inspection of annular plates and pipes, for pitting, stress corrosion, etc; weld inspection, surface wave inspection
TOFD Inspection RF B-Scan and D-Scan Imaging Both time based & true to location modes of data recording are supported. Complete sequence of RF A-Scans is recorded along with TOFD map.
XY scanning & recording with C-Scan and B-Scan imaging is also possible if using optional USB interface to multi-axis mechanical encoder & appropriate software package.
For all scanning, A-Scans are captured for each probe position along the probe trace. The same can be played back and evaluated off-line at post processing stage. This unique feature makes it possible off-line defect characterization through echo-dynamic pattern analysis.

ISONIC AUT 16/32 Multi Channel Flaw Detector

ISONIC AUT 16/32 is multi channel flaw detectors for automatic testing. ISONIC AUT 16 comprises 16 and ISONIC AUT 32 comprises 32 identical independent channels . Highest scanning speed is achieved through simultaneous (parallel) pulsing, receiving, digitizing, & recording of signals.
Every channel is featured with 3 independent gates providing unique ability of Gain per Gate Adjustment (GGA) - this allows implementing of back echo attenuation, interface gate synchronizing, suppression of large geometry echoes, and other functions typical for automatic ultrasonic inspection.
ISONIC AUT 16/32 instruments are packed into rugged portable and light IP 67 sealed cases, which may be either fitted onto the scanner's chassis or mounted into a cabinet at the stationary inspection deck or just dropped onto a ground while performing inspection at the field site. Regular remote laptop or desktop PC equipped with inspection software package provides full control of the instrument and real time data acquisition through Ethernet. Ultrasonic signals are sampled on-board then digitised raw inspection data is transferred to remote PC for further processing, storage, and imaging. Fully digital through-Ethernet control and data transfer provide practically unlimited length of distance to remote PC enabling flexibility of creating control rooms or multiple monitor stations throughout the factory / hangar / weld station, etc.
Scope of ultrasonic inspection techniques implemented by ISONIC AUT 16/32 instruments includes thickness gauging, pulse echo, pitch-catch, and through-transmission flaw detection, TOFD, and the like. Multi-channel scanning strategy and data presentation are implemented under control and processing of inspection software package running in the remote PC
