T-Scan - Handheld Ultrasonic Material and Coating Thickness Gauges
The latest thickness gauge from Silverwing, the T-scan 300 is a combined material and coatings thickness gauge. Unlike other systems the T-scan 300 is capable of measuring through painted surfaces and giving both the thickness of the paint and the base metal at the same time. Options within the software all5ow the operator to view the results as either simple digits or as a B-scan cross sectional image of the inspected area.
Key Features - Measurement Modes
- Pulse-Echo
- Pulse-Echo with Temperature Compensation
- Pulse-Echo with Coating
- Echo-Echo
- Coating Only
The T-scan 300DL has all the features of the T-scan 300 but also has a massive data storage facility. The 32 MB of RAM allows storage of 210,000 thickness measurements, in either grid or sequential format, or 16,000 B-scan graphical images including the settings for each image.
The T-scan 300DL+ has all
the features of the T-scan 300DL but also incudes an A-Scan display.
