Automated scanner for nondestructive testing (NDT) of pipe

of flight, sensitivity (ACG as defined by ASME), TCG\DAC, and velocity. The WeldRover itself is a one-axis encoded, motorized scanner. Data acquisition is acquired with either an Omniscan MXU for direct acquisition or Focus LT for computer based acquisition. Any Olympus UT or PA instrument with an encoder input is compatible with the WeldRover and requires no programming besides entering the encoder information. In addition, standard OmniScan or Tomoview software is used. Olympus NDT is a manufacturer of innovative nondestructive testing instruments including ultrasound, ultrasound phased array, eddy current, and eddy current array. Its products include flaw detectors, thickness gauges, in-line systems, automated systems, industrial scanners, pulser-receivers, probes, transducers, and various accessories.

Olympus, USA, has introduced the WeldRover ™ automated scanner for nondestructive testing (NDT) on pipe, metal plate, and vessels. The WeldRover™ can also be used on welded components from 4″ (100mm) in diameter to flat surfaces and on longseam welds 30″ (750mm) in diameter or larger.

The automated scanner can be used with the modular OmniScan MX flaw detector or TomoScan Focus LT to provide phased array (PA), time-of-flight diffraction (TOFD), and advanced conventional ultrasound (UT) capabilities for both the standard and advanced level inspector.

The WeldRover is part of the PV200 family of Olympus systems that combine phased array, conventional UT, and TOFD technologies for a complete turnkey solution for code based inspections to ASME, API, AWS, and similar procedures. It is claimed to be the only phased array system on the market that can demonstrate a full calibration of every focal law on every channel for time

 The WeldRover ™ automated scanner provides nondestructive testing for metal plate, pipe, vessels and welded components
