A New Technique for Acoustic Source Localization in an Anisotropic Plate without Knowing its Material Properties

eform Generator) option Can be daisy-chained for multi-electronic or multi-probe applications 64/64, 64/128, 64/256 Small form factor OEM-PA Max is the new leading edge of what can be found in the FMC/TFM family of beamformers. It’s outstanding speed of 1GB/s (using 10Gb Ethernet) for a batch of 64ch allows any acquisition to be as quick in FMC as in Phased Array. The AWG (Arbitrary Waveform Generator) option, which allows the emission of tone bursts, Chirps Gaussian waveforms as well as any user defined waveform, permits to use encoded pulser shapes to improve super-resolution and SNR. Since OEM-PA Max also manages all Phased Array processing, it provides all the versatility you can expect or need, and in a very small form factor that makes any application possible.

ved signal to noise ratio, characterize, size and analyze defects better with access to several wave mode views and save raw FMC data for higher quality analysis.  Some of the benefits are: #Beautiful Image! Easier to understand what you're looking at #Completely focused in entire image or volume #Much easier to define setups before inspection #Easier to decipher geometry echoes from real defects #Oriented defects (e.g. cracks) are imaged better #See image from different wave modes from one FMC inspection #FMC data can be reprocessed/analyzed without going back to the field

es place circumferentially or “around the curve” for applications such as inspection of longseam welds in piping and vessels. Jointly designed by PH Tool and Holloway NDT, the blocks feature side-drilled hole reflectors positioned within novel compound-curves, each with multiple thickness steps. The unique design results in a light and compact form factor, with the largest block weighing just over 15 lbs and spanning just 16 ¾”. Coverage is provided for nominal pipe sizes from 6” to 10” in the small block and 12” to a whopping 56” in the large block. The compound OD curves and multiple wall thicknesses actually exceed ASME requirements, providing exceptional signal response and measurement accuracy. Properly managing beam divergence off the ID and stabilizing beam skew due to probe rocking is essential to maintaining a consistent calibration when inspecting lengthwise on curved surfaces.
