What if you could tailor the settings on your UT device and alter it to your own process and people’s needs? An instrument where all the useful parameters are pre-set and available in less than two clicks?  Now you can.

Introducing WAVE by Sonatest. It integrates the latest technologies available in order to create a revolution in the ultrasonic non-destructive testing equipment market.
Not only is it innovative, but the customisable interface also optimises the daily workflow, and a unique and embedded interactive scan plan, with ray-tracing capability and simulation tools, consolidates your results.

Its wifi capability allows you to access it anywhere in the field, eases data transfer, application installation and manages calibration date and software version.

Features:

– Interactive Scan Plan

The WAVE interactive scan plan has been developed to ease diagnostics on the inspected part.  The scan plan can reproduce complex geometries such as Curved parts and T-Joints.  Combined with a real-time Raytracer, this unique feature facilitates the distinction between a real flaw and a geometrical indication.  Thus avoiding unnecessary repair.

– Application Concept

The WAVE application concept combines conformity and performance which allows the operator to customise the user interface according to their specific procedure.

The intuitive user interface with an easy to use display will guarantee workflow optimisation as well as preventing potential operational errors.

– UTouch Technology

UTouch Technology allows your device to operate in the same way as a mobile phone.  Combined with rugged components and an intelligent algorithm which makes the distinction between couplant and finger.

– WAVE Companion

The WAVE Companion software offers an environment where dedicated predefined applications setups are created and uploaded to Wave platform.

Once created, the new app setups are transferred and installed on the unit via wired (USB-C / ethernet) or wireless network. The default app allows access to all functionalities and features where the user can modify the entire settings.
