Many of the standard range of Phoenix scanners can be supplied for use with phased array. We also work with major suppliers of instrumentation to provide a complete solution for phased array inspections. For specialist requirements, our consultants can design phased array equipment to suit your needs and advise on inspection design.
Scanner helps Alstom reduce inspection times
A new automatic scanner to detect cracks in the blade root fixings of steam turbine discs has allowed Alstom to replace manual inspections with the latest phased array techniques. The system, designed by Phoenix, has drastically reduced typical inspection times while at the same time providing a permanent record of the results. It will be deployed at power stations worldwide where Alstom power plants are installed.

Phased array aids early detection of cancer
A new medical scanner which uses polymer PVDF phased array probes, in place of a mechanically scanned one, can help to detect skin cancers and other conditions at an early stage. Phoenix is developing the piezo-polymer transducers for the scanner, the work being part of a £1.1 million government-funded research and development project led by medical technology company Longport.

Magman
This popular magnetic wheeled scanner was designed specifically for manual operation. Compact yet robust, it carries up to eight ultrasonic probes. The Magman is highly versatile and capable not only of scanning flat plate welds but also of the inspection of pipes down to 50mm outside diameter.
Mini Magman
Simple to operate with just one hand, the Mini Magman holds up to four probes and is useful for low-profile inspections of pipe and plate. This highly adaptable magnetic wheeled scanner is ideal for phased array.
Instrumentation
We can provide manual, automated and semi-automated scanners to integrate with any phased array equipment on the market, or if no scanners are required then we can supply the instrumentation only
