Characterized by its smooth-rolling encoded movement, the COBRA Scanner enables pinpoint data acquisition. The scanner holds up to two phased array probes for complete inspection of the weld in one pass. For pipe-to-component inspections, the scanner can be configured to perform one-sided inspections using a single probe.
Low-profile phased array probes with optimized elevation focusing, Enhances the detection of small defects in thin-wall pipes.
Specially designed low-profile wedges fitting each pipe diameter covered by the scanner are also available.
The COBRA scanner ensures stable, constant, and strong pressure, thus providing good UT signals and precise encoding around the full circumference of the pipe.
