CUD9900W Ultrasonic Flaw Detector Key Benefits

Computer programmable design
Manual scanner with the innovative dual mode probes
Hard copy of the examination results

The CUD 9900 is a self-contained digital ultrasonic flaw detector perfect for the variety of manual and semi-automatic ultrasonic examination. It is specifically designed for the pre-programmed field examination and to interface with the PC computer afterward for the purpose of the examination results evaluation and file management.

The innovative design allows for the installation of one or more examination procedures by downloading the information from the host computer prior to the field testing. After collecting the data, the results can be later evaluated for the code acceptability and appropriate hard copy of the exam can be produced.
The instrument can operate in both manual and semi-automatic scanning modes. The semi-automatic mode allows for the unique technique of data collection using the specially designed manual probes for instantaneous distance to the reference point data. Other probes can be also supplied if requested.

Instrument Features

Probe calibration catalogue
The information for each probe parameters such as zero offset, actual beam angle etc. can be stored in the library for the easy access and test reproducibility. The new probes can be easily added or its parameters modified.
Examination procedures
The instrument software allows for the conventional of type ultrasonic examination. The optional examination procedure modules permit the automatic instrument control adjustment and evaluation of results and at the same time taking into consideration the specific code requirements. For instance, built-in flaw size evaluation can provide a direct readout of the defect size in accordance with the DGS methodology.
Scanner
The semi-automatic scanning option allows for the collection of data using the specially designed probes for the constant measurements of the probe position. This system can be used for hard copy examination documents, including mapping of defects, flaw evaluation and analysis purposes.

The CUD 9900 screen display in the scanner (AUTO) mode during examination of the 11.5 mm thick welded plate. Screen shows a defect of 2.4 mm in size (using DGS sizing), 36 mm in front of the probe and located 155.5 mm from the reference point. The mapping of defects is shown directly below display at the bottom of this figure.
