QuickScan iX ECA
Loading...
Overview
Powerful Eddy Current Array Solution for In-Process Surface Inspection
| The QuickScan iX ECA acquisition instrument is specifically designed for surface inspections in a material production environment. Its design meets the same reliable 24 V I/O industrial standards as the field proven QuickScan iX PA instrument. Up to eight probes can be connected per unit. Several acquisition units can be combined for more demanding configurations in terms of probes or speed. |  |

Applications
Tube Inspection Systems
Seamless and welded tube inspection systems use ultrasonic phased array and X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy technologies for comprehensive inspection.
Bar Inspection Systems
Bar inspection systems use advanced technologies, such as ultrasonic phased array, eddy current array, and X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, to inspect the full volume and surface of round or square bars and pipes.
