3. Prisma offers the best digitizing frequency of its category going up to 200MHz Simply put this means that high frequency transducers can be used ensuring the most accurate flaw height sizing possible TOFD is a versatile technique with two UT channels the Prisma permits the inspection of thick component in a single pass This is enhanced by the high voltage square wave pulsers delivering up to 450V Prisma TOFD offers the complete hardware configuration to deliver the best performance but it would be incom plete without the on board software features such as hyperbolic cursors lateral wave straightening and lateral wave removal Prisma PA Ultrasonic Phased Array technology has become the established method for advanced NDT testing applica tions Phased Array Techniques allow the user to cover a wider volume of inspection such as being able to cover the complete span of a weld without the need to move or reposition the transducer This is possible due to phased array enabling beams to be electronically steered This technique results in comprehensive imaging of the re sults showing a quasi cross section of the inspected part With the Prisma PA you can switch easily and quickly between the UT and PA operating modes with a simple press of a button no data or time is lost The Inspection Plan shows the operator in 2D and 3D where probes are positioned on the test part simplifying the inspection set up and providing an
