OmniScan X4
Detect and interpret challenging flaws and identify damage earlier with the powerful, yet portable OmniScan™ X4 multitechnology flaw detector. Exploit its versatile PA, faster TFM, innovative PCI, and efficient twin TFM/PCI to perform rapid and reliable inspections of welds and components.
OmniScan X3 Series
Every flaw detector in the OmniScan™ X3 series is a complete phased array toolbox. Innovative TFM and advanced PA capabilities help you identify flaws with confidence while powerful software tools and simple workflows improve your productivity.
FOCUS PX Acquisition Unit | FocusPC™ Software & SDK
The scalable FOCUS PX acquisition unit and FocusPC software incorporate the latest phased array (PA) and conventional UT technologies for easy integration into automated and semiautomated systems. This inspection solution enables you to generate and save C-scan and A-scan raw data for applications where the verdict is based on post-inspection data analysis. This includes applications in industries such as aerospace (composite laminate), power generation (wind blade), transportation (train wheels), metal (forged parts), and more.
OmniScan SX
The single group, lightweight OmniScan SX flaw detector features an easy-to-read 8.4-inch (21.3 cm) touch screen and provides cost-effective solutions. The OmniScan SX comes in two models: the SX PA and SX UT. The SX PA is a 16:64PR unit, which, like the UT-only SX UT, is equipped with a conventional UT channel for P/E, P-C, or TOFD inspections.

FAQs
What are phased arrays used for?
Phased array systems can be employed in almost any test where conventional ultrasonic flaw detectors have traditionally been used. They are used across a range of industries, including aerospace, power generation, petrochemical, metal billet and tubular goods supply, pipeline construction and maintenance, structural metals, and general manufacturing. Phased arrays are often used in weld inspections, crack detection, and corrosion mapping.
What are the advantages of phased array systems?
Compared with traditional ultrasonic testing systems, which use single- or dual-element transducers, phased array inspection systems use multiple elements. The multielement configuration enables the user to steer, focus, and scan the beam with a single probe assembly. This makes mapping components with odd angles and complex geometries much easier and more accurate than with traditional ultrasonic equipment.
