Data evaluation can be on- or off-line,based on pattern recognition of single or composite longitudinal B-scan images of indications.Fully documented inspection results with the capability for advanced flaw evaluation based ondigital pattern recognition of longitudinal B-scan cross-sections.Real-time detection of defects and paint marking.Up to 12 ultrasonic channels per rail. Simultaneous firing of all channels.Up toZ100km/hr (60miles/hr), dependent on longitudinal resolution requirement andperformance of ultrasonic coupling device.6mm per channel at 90km/hr (56miles/hr). Tighter resolution with decreasing inspectionspeed.Automatic height tracking and set-up loading.Encoder-based measurement along the track. Automatic or manual adjustment of position atposition markers.0º, ±35º, ±70, 55º transducers are typically used for detection of a variety of flaws. Protectiveshoes prevent transducer wear-out.Comprehensive inspection report, including list of flaws, their type and location.Three levels of programmable authorized access.
