TecScan introduces Scan3D: a family of High Precision Immersion Scanners

When inspecting complex 3D parts whether in immersion or
squirter configuration, advanced contour following and
motion control schemes are required to reliably follow the
part surface and acquire inspection data.

TecScan is pleased to introduce Scan3D, a new family of High
Precision Immersion Scanners. Combined with TecView 3D and
our Gimbal/Gimbal manipulator, Scan3D revolutionizes the
ultrasonic scanning process. With Scan3D, the scan-plans of
the parts are directly imported from the CAD files and C-
Scans are performed simultaneously in Through-Transmission
and Pulse-Echo. Results are then displayed on the imported
3D model of the part for analysis.

Scan3D allows you to perform advanced contour following with
arbitrary motion and following the shape of any curved part.
The capabilities of this Immersion Scanner are numerous;
users can combine the automated teach and learn with the
imported 3D CAD of the part to generate scan-plans and
perform complex 3D contour following. An optional Sound Path
Calculation (SPC) module can be combined to the automated
Teach and Learn capability. This module takes into
consideration the physical properties of the part for
through transmission scanning. It calculates the entry and
exit points of the ultrasonic waves in the part and ensures
an optimal sound transmission and reception to provide
reliable, high quality scan data, especially in homogeneous
materials.
