Why Choose the UCD 60 PA?

1. Unmatched Image Quality with TFM Technology


✔ Full-matrix data capture for high-resolution imaging across the entire inspection volume
✔ 16-element phased array with performance comparable to 32- and 64-element probes
✔ Sensitivity alignment (ACG & TCG) for precise defect sizing

2. Lightweight & Rugged for Field Use


✔ Ultra-portable (1.4 kg) with shock-resistant, IP65-rated casing
✔ High-contrast TFT display (640×480 px) – visible even in bright sunlight
✔ 10+ hours battery life – ideal for extended field inspections

3. Smart Inspection Tools for Faster, More Accurate Testing

✔ Weld Wizard –Predefined weld profiles with real geometry simulation
✔ Scan Plan Wizard – Visual beam path planning for optimal coverage
✔ True beam path calculation – Accounts for wedge geometry for precise defect location
✔ B-Scan & C-Scan recording – Supports encoder-based scanning

4. Easy Switch between Operation Modes

  • Phased Array (PA) Mode
  • Conventional UT Mode
The instrument offers simple access to all functions, working both as a phased array and a standard conventional flaw detector with instant mode switching that does not require device rebooting or settings reloading.

5. Advanced Defect Analysis & Reporting

  • TFM + A-scan in each position
  • B-scan with weld geometry overlay
  • Full-screen zoom for detailed signal analysis
For conventional mode:
✔ Built-in DAC, DGS curves for defect evaluation
✔ AWS D1.1 standard support – Automatic D1.1 Ratio calculation
