Vertex

2-Axis, Universal Scanner Platform

The Vertex Scanner from ScanTech is a modular, two-axis scanning platform designed for versatility and precision in industrial inspections. Its compatibility with various systems makes it an adaptable choice for both ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

This Scanner is designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial inspections, offering unmatched versatility and performance.

BENEFITS

Modularity: Toolless attachments for Front Raster Arm, Side Raster Arm, and Multi-Probe Weld Scans.

Versatility: Scans circumferentially on carbon steel using magnetic wheels or on non-ferrous materials such as carbon fiber and stainless steel using our chain attachment system.

Compatibility: Integrates seamlessly with our powerful Analyst Controller and software or connects to third-party Phased Array systems.

Field-Proven Design: Straight-line probe lift ensures greater ruggedness and positional accuracy compared to linear guides.

Adjustability: Rigid dovetail probe yoke offers wide adjustability for most probes, including Phased Array Probes, while maintaining necessary rigidity.

Stability: Patented Anti-Tip probe gimbal provides best-in-class stability and UT signal return. Combined with our near-constant force spring design, it ensures superior performance and ease over welds.

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY

STC Distributed, Modular Control System: Minimizes cable conductors for a lighter umbilical and offers easy expandability for additional axes and features.

Toolless Adjustments: Simplifies attachment points and wheel angle adjustments for small radii.

APPLICATIONS

Corrosion Mapping: Efficiently maps corrosion in various industrial structures.

Weld Inspections: Provides accurate and reliable data for weld quality assessments.

General Ultrasonic Testing: Suitable for a wide range of ultrasonic testing applications, ensuring thorough evaluations of materials.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

New Mid-Section Body Design: High compliance suspension for better adaptability.

Toolless Attachment Points: Simplifies wheel angle adjustments for small radii.

Spring Design: Offers the most constant contact force over full travel.

Probe Guide Hardware: Ensures reliability and ruggedness in lightweight, modular, multi-probe configurations.

Quick Adjustments: Ensure proper probe contact on pipe surfaces for both circumferential and longitudinal scans.

Anti-Tip Probe Mechanism: Prevents probes from flipping over.

The Vertex Scanner features a compact and robust design, with dimensions of 10.5 inches in length, 7.5 inches in width, and 5.0 inches in height, and a weight of 15.0 lbs. Its drive units deliver a speed of 6 inches per second under full load, while the lead screw raster arm achieves speeds of up to 36 inches per second. The scanner is capable of inspecting circumferential pipes with minimum diameters of 6 inches using the front raster arm and 3 inches using the side raster arm. Built for versatility and precision, the Vertex Scanner is ideal for a wide range of industrial inspection applications.
