The Socoswift is the latest PAUT instrument from Socomate International for Phased Array Ultrasonic Inspection. It provides high tech features to answer the most demanding requirements for complex and high-speed inspections. Designed to be used in harsh environments, the Socoswift is perfect for automated inspection systems.
The real strength of this instrument is the SWIFT mode: you can use up to 4 active apertures or 1 large band emission, to then process in reception up to 4 virtual apertures in parallel for faster inspections without downgrading the resolution. SWIFT mode together with Dynamic Depth Focusing (DDF) method increase drastically the inspection speed of thicker materials.
This feature also offers high advantages for tubular goods inspection.
