Airstar Inc. has already developed a completely digital C-scan instrument, which integrates and combines the ultrasonic pulser/receiver with the motion control and imaging software. During scanning, the full A-scan signal is collected for each single pixel of the C-scan Image. These signals can be displayed and processed as desired afterwards. Most importantly, the C-scan image can be quickly resampled after the scanning, using new gate settings. This post-processing allows for new, unprecedented and fast feature extractions, making re-scanning of the same part obsolete. More information about the company and the products and services are found on the company's homepage http://www.airstar1.com.
