(Olympus NDT: Waltham, MA) -- Olympus NDT introduces the first semiautomated (semi-AUT) ultrasound phased-array solution developed for corrosion mapping applications. This portable inspection solution comprises several components, including the OmniScan MX PA flaw detector, OmniScan MXU software with corrosion mapping functionality, and the HydroFORM Phased-Array Probe Carrier with a mini-wheel encoder. The new HydroFORM solution improves inspection quality, operator safety, mechanical dependability, and productivity in the nondestructive testing (NDT) of metal plates, pipes, and welded components for detection of internal corrosion, midwall anomalies, and environmentally damaged mechanisms.
