WheelProbe 2

WheelProbe 2: Precision and Coverage for Superior Mapping Inspections

Coverage and precision are the keys to a successful mapping inspection. Our WheelProbe 2 offers a 0.8 mm lateral resolution and up to 100 mm coverage width (0.031 inch pitch and 4.0 inches in the imperial system).

Typical Applications

• Corrosion Mapping
• Marine Inspection
• Aerospace Fuselage
• Aerospace Large Area Scanning
• Automotive Testing

Applications where the WheelProbe 2 is currently in use include:

• Aeronautical and astronomical aerospace part inspections
• Marine hull inspections
• Corrosion mapping asset integrity inspections in the oil and gas industry
• Composite inspections in the automotive and structural industries
• Many more

You can indeed utilize our probe in specific aerospace scenarios, such as stiffener bonding control or during corrosion detection under wing spar cap.

Composite Inspection

The WP2 presents the most efficient solution for scanning large areas of composite. As the best alternative to immersion inspection, the WP2 offers an impressive 1 mm near-surface resolution in the latest composite materials using a 5 MHz array. Additionally, it is available with 10 MHz and 2.0 MHz versions. The WP2 tyre tightly matches the acoustic impedance of water and, like its predecessor, produces UT signals of exceptional quality. The configurable handles, adjustable laser guidance, unique LEDs for alarm feedback, remote control with start/stop indexing and reset buttons, as well as the remote display, make this package unique, superior, and still unequalled.

Corrosion Monitoring

We offer complete and reliable equipment to generate high-quality corrosion map surveys. With the efficiency, performance, and precision provided by the WP2, it is now possible to inspect larger areas even faster and provide high-quality visual results immediately in the live C-Scan (as seen in figure 2).

Large Area C-scan Evolution

Moreover, this technique allows the user to compare large amounts of data over time to perform preventative maintenance, reducing potential downtown. The WheelProbe array provides high quality data that can efficiently analyze with PC software or even third-party software such as CIVA Analysis.

WheelProbe 2 is the tool of choice for fast and accurate corrosion monitoring applications!
