How Our Customers Use the OmniScan
Save Time and Energy Screening Welds with the Merged B-Scan
If you’ve ever wondered whether there’s a more efficient way to perform weld screening than simply scrolling through B-scans, you’ll want to hear about our solution. With the MXU 5.13 software update, we introduced an innovative B-scan view for the OmniScan™ X3 series that has the potential to revolutionize this time- and attention-consuming technique. Used as a validation tool, it can give you more confidence in your assessments and help ease the whole B-scan screening process.
5 Main Advantages of Phase Coherence Imaging (PCI)
With the release of MXU 5.10 software, the OmniScan™ X3 64 flaw detector gains a new advanced ultrasonic inspection technique: phase coherence imaging (PCI). As soon as your OmniScan X3 64 unit is updated, you can start taking advantage of PCI to achieve live total focusing method (TFM) images with unprecedented clarity and sensitivity to small defects.
Using the Total Focusing Method to Improve Phased Array Ultrasonic Imaging
The nondestructive testing (NDT) industry is experiencing an important technological advancement, as total focusing method (TFM) capable inspection devices are making their entry into the market. The TFM approach represents a significant step forward for phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) technology.
Frequently Asked Questions about Phase Coherence Imaging
What does phase coherence mean?
The phase of an A-scan refers to the frequencies that make up the signal at any given point. Because of the effects of constructive and destructive interference, the A-scan can be described by the phase portion that dictates the signal frequency and an amplitude portion. In phase coherence imaging (PCI)—a variant of total focus method (TFM) imaging—comparing the phase information between A-scans and the level of similarity in their frequency distributions determines the phase coherence. The greater the similarity between the frequency distributions of the A-scans, the higher the level of coherence.
Benefit from 64-Pulser Phased Array
Exploit the full potential of 64-element phased array probes using the OmniScan X3 64 flaw detector to achieve improved resolution at the focal point.
Right-hand image: Acquired using a 32-channel OmniScan X3 unit with a 64-element probe (5L64-A32 model), this S-scan is a high-quality image but the resolution reflects the fact that only the middle 32 elements could be used for the focal law.
Left-hand image: Using a full 64-element aperture (5L64-A32 probe), the OmniScan X3 64 flaw detector provides better PA resolution at the focal point, enabling you to more easily distinguish indications that are close together or in a cluster.
Access Full 128-Element Aperture TFM
Made possible by new generation electronics, TFM imaging offers better focusing capabilities for smaller indications and an improved signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). With its 128-element aperture capacity, the OmniScan X3 64 model provides enhanced image clarity.
Right-hand image: This TFM image was acquired with 64 elements of a 128-element probe (3.5L128-I4 model) using an OmniScan X3 32-channel model.
Left-hand image: Here, the OmniScan X3 64 flaw detector enabled us to use the full 128-element aperture of our 3.5 MHz, 128-element I4 probe. Note the improved resolution and reduced background noise.
Acquire up to 4X Faster TFM
Achieve total focusing method (TFM) acquisition speeds of up to 4 times faster when using a 64-element probe. Compared to models with 32 pulsers, the OmniScan X3 64 flaw detector offers a significant improvement in efficiency owing to its larger aperture capability.
Improved Phased Array
Ease Corrosion Monitoring Using Phased Array
Using phased array to inspect corrosion offers many benefits, including excellent coverage and resolution. However, becoming proficient in phased array techniques can be challenging. The OmniScan X3 flaw detector combines advanced functions such as gate synchronization with thoughtfully designed software and simplified menus, so you can obtain accurate data more easily. Configure your setup quickly thanks to its A-scan synchronization processing and manual time-corrected gain (TCG).
