NEW-Corrosion Software Option

Thickness measurement is a major application of the Masterscan series and good data logging tools are essential to productivity. The popular block/location/Reading-Number format is available as standard. With the corrosion software option, users can create and populate 2-dimensional grids of readings, with A-Logs, B-Scans, historical readings and notes optionally attached to each thickness log.

Dryscan Mode

The Dryscan option adds a tuned pre-amplifier to the received signal, allowing comparative transmission testing of composite materials which cannot be inspected using traditional techniques. Used in conjunction with soft-tip and roller probes, no couplant is required, so honeycomb structures or carbon fiber panels are easily assessed for delaminations and disbonds.

UTLity Data Management Software

UTLity software provides everything you need to manage your inspection data. The Standard version is FREE with every instrument and give you the ability to view, move and manage Calibrations, A-Scans, B-Scans and Thickness Logs both on the instrument and on your PC. With UT-Lite you can also create customized inspection report templates, cut-n-paste information to other applications and create printable pdf documents.

High Visibility Display

For any flaw detector the display is a crucial element. The Masterscan series has a colour transflective VGA display,
providing high visibility in any lighting conditions. Maximum readability is achieved through adjustable brightness
and the choice of 9 colour palettes, including a black on white LCD emulation mode.
Simplicity reigns with the enhanced user interface and a full screen A-Scan display is available
at the touch of a button, so that every detail of the A-Scan can be easily seen.
