Weld Inspection
Key Improvements
• Specific setup wizard for TOFD inspection.
• New probe center separation (PCS) calibration tool.
• Crisper, more legible B-scan images.
• Multi-TOFD layouts (available on OmniScan MX2 only).
• Optimized lateral wave straightening.
• Higher pulse repetition frequency (PRF).
• Higher voltage (up to 340 V); eliminates the need for preamplifiers.
When combined, these features offer you a faster and simpler setup, easier results interpretation,
and more accurate defect sizing for an overall increase in productivity.
Lateral Wave Straightening
The lateral wave straightening function has been optimized so that the readability of TOFD results is improved. A straighter
lateral wave also enables more precise depth evaluation and flaw sizing.
Raw TOFD data TOFD data after lateral wave straightening is applied.
Multi-TOFD Layouts
(OmniScan MX2 only)
The new Multi-TOFD layout, offered in the latest OmniScan®
MXU software, can display more than one group at a time.
This enables you to easily position and size flaw indications
by visual correlation between groups.

Dedicated Scanners and Accessories
HST-Lite TOFD Scanner
The HST-Lite scanner is an ideal tool for performing
cost-effective, one-channel TOFD inspection with
consistent and reliable data quality. The combina-
tion of magnetic wheels and spring-loaded probe
holders offer the stability required to perform high-
quality, one-line inspections. The scanner can be
operated with one hand, and it maintains a firm
hold on ferromagnetic surfaces even when held
upside-down.
The COBRA small-diameter pipe scanner can perform TOFD inspections with the appropriate
wedges, cables, and transducers.
