P-scan 3D / UltraSIM
3D concept
The use of advanced UT-technology in combination with advanced 3D simulation and evaluation facilities, a modular 6 degrees of freedom robot manipulator and P-scan System 4 enables inspection of components with complex geometry.
P-scan 3D / UltraSIM - History
Research within the area of ultrasonic inspection of objects with complex geometry started at the FORCE Technology more than ten years ago with the development of the first version of the 3D ultrasonic simulation software, UltraSIM. ...more

Enhanced system applicability
The 3D Robot inspection system is applicable to most areas where components with complex geometry surfaces have to be inspected with UT, ET and VT. The system concept allows inspections to be carried out where conventional NDE inspection systems (automatic XY type scanners, manual inspection, etc.) cannot accomplish the inspection task, e.g. due to geometry or harsh environment such as underwater inspection of offshore, petrochemical or nuclear components.
