PAUT.Tech ASCN Long Seam Scanner | PAUT & TOFD Longitudinal Weld Inspection Scanner

The PAUT.Tech ASCN Long Seam Scanner is a custom-engineered Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) and Time of Flight Diffraction (TOFD) scanner designed specifically for the inspection of longitudinal (long seam) welds on pipe. Its compact, stable design provides accurate probe positioning and smooth encoded scanning, delivering reliable, repeatable inspection results in both fabrication and in-service applications.

Designed for professional NDT technicians, the scanner is suitable for pipe diameters from 100 mm to 250 mm and larger, making it ideal for pipeline fabrication, pressure vessel manufacturing, and structural weld inspections.

Key Features

• Designed specifically for long seam weld inspections
• Suitable for 100 mm to 250 mm pipe diameters and larger
• 200 mm wide 20 mm V-Slot bar for a rigid and stable scanning platform
• Magnetic wheels provide secure tracking on ferromagnetic surfaces
• Mini Wheel encoder mounting provision (encoder not included)
• Wedge forks supplied to suit 23 mm, 25 mm, 28 mm, 30 mm, and 32 mm PAUT and TOFD wedges
• Compact, lightweight, and rugged construction for workshop and field inspections

Precision Alignment

The scanner has been engineered so that the magnetic wheels and encoder operate almost directly in line with the inspection wedges, ensuring exceptional tracking accuracy and smooth encoded data acquisition. This design minimises lateral movement and helps maintain consistent probe alignment throughout the inspection.

Applications

The PAUT.Tech ASCN Long Seam Scanner is ideal for:

• Longitudinal (long seam) weld inspections
• PAUT weld inspections
• TOFD weld inspections
• Pipeline fabrication
