Flaw Detector
Flaw detection is the process of identifying and sizing sub-surface defects in materials. One of the most common techniques to identify defects is ultrasonic inspection where sound waves, propagated through the material, are used to identify such anomalies. The high frequency sound behaves predictably when interacting with surfaces and internal defects.
Flaw detection can be applied in almost any industry from composites and metals used in aerospace, to petrochemical oil and gas pipelines and storage tanks, to power generation including nuclear power. The most common anomalies detected include cracks, voids and porosity in metals, ceramics and plastics in addition to delaminations and disbonds in composites.
The portable Curlin Air utilizes air-coupled ultrasonics and requires no surface preparation and no direct contact with test object. It performs sensitive inspections to detect voids, impact damage, and disbonds in a wide variety of water-incompatible materials. Originally used primarily for aerospace composites, the Curlin Air is referenced specifically by major aerospace manufacturers in their published inspection procedures. It has since evolved to evaluate a diverse range of materials including propellants and wood and foam panels.
The Bondascope 3100 handheld bond tester is used throughout the aerospace industry.

By utilizing low and high frequencies, the Bondascope 3100 easily evaluates the most difficult composite test objects. Whether you are inspecting honeycomb composite, metal-to-metal bonds, or laminate composite, the Bondascope 3100 offers an easy-to use-operator interface, data archiving, and presets for the most common applications.
The Avenger II is rugged and lightweight handheld ultrasonic instrument utilized daily in the evaluation of investment castings, in-service inspection, plastics, and turbine blades, tanks, tubes and pipes. Incorporating a palmtop design and weighing only 800 grams, the Avenger II allows for a grip-orientated weight distribution to maximize ultrasonic testing efficiency. Single-hand operation frees up the user’s other hand to maneuver the probe for a thorough inspection. By utilizing just a few keys, the operator can toggle through the menu navigation functions along with the menu architecture of the operating system with ease. A ‘Display Rotation’ or ‘Flip’ feature is an added benefit to assist left-handed users (as well as right) with inspections.
The Raptor flaw detector is used daily throughout the aerospace, automotive, composite, and oil and gas industries. Featuring an enhanced color display and the ability to drive scanners for collection of A, B, and C-scan data, the Raptor collects more accurate results than other portable flaw detectors on the market. The Raptor is unique with its C-scan and 3D imaging capabilities, allowing the operator to tackle the most difficult applications in some of the harshest environments.
