Unique and ultra-portable phased array ultrasonic roller probe for your composite inspection needs.
Krautkrämer RotoArray comPAct is Waygate Technologies’ first instrument powered by our new technology comPAct. As an industry first it combines the performance of a complete phased array inspection system in a single probe thanks to miniaturized instrument electronics. With Krautkrämer RotoArray comPAct your PA inspection workflow needs less equipment and becomes more flexible. RotoArray comPAct ensures reliable and convenient flaw detection with maximum portability, minimum weight and excellent connectivity for time- and cost-efficient manual phased array inspections.

The innovative comPAct technology opens up new and versatile application possibilities if you are looking for ultra-portable, ergonomic and easy-to-use solutions. You can conveniently take Krautkrämer RotoAray comPAct with you anywhere into the field, while benefiting from equipment miniaturization, associated weight reduction, high connectivity and lower upfront costs.
ComPAct
Waygate Technologies has developed and integrated a disruptive and unique technology into the proven RotoArray roller probe that redefines phased array inspection and makes it easier and faster for everyone: comPAct.
The most cost-effective lightweight PA solution
The brand new patented technology of comPAct compresses the functionality of PA electronics into a half-thumb-sized chip. The miniaturized instrument electronics enable a 100x reduction in volume and a 20x reduction in power consumption compared to traditional PA instruments, allowing the instruments to be easily powered from a tablet or PC via a USB connection. Minimal size and light weight offer maximum flexibility for housing PA electronics in a box, directly in a scanner, or even in the PA probe itself.
comPAct paves new ways for lighter, simpler and more cost-effective UT phased array applications.
Krautkrämer RotoArray comPAct es una solución "todo en uno"uno" pequeña y ligera, pero potente, que cabe en la palma de la mano y permite la máxima portabilidad. No se necesita ningún instrumento multielemento adicional, ya que toda la electrónica PA necesaria está integrada directamente en la sonda. Se trata de un dispositivo de peso ligero, la sonda pesa solo 0,85 kg vacía y 1,2 kg llena de glicol.
Puede conectar fácilmente Krautkrämer RotoArray comPAct a una tablet o PC mediante conexión USB para manejar la sonda y visualizar imágenes A, B y C-scan.
Gracias al diseño ergonómicode los instrumentos, Krautkrämer RotoArray comPAct es muy cómodo de manejar. Las instrucciones paso a paso garantizan un manejo sencillo y completo, especialmente adecuado para usuarios principiantes en multielemento. Además, los ajustes preconfigurados se pueden seleccionar fácilmente desde un menú y agilizan el proceso. La aplicación de software basada en Mentor UT garantiza una guía intuitiva a través de la configuración del sistema, la calibración y el proceso de inspección multielemento manual.
La alta conectividad de Krautkrämer RotoArray comPAct permite una comprensión más rápida de los datos. El palpador de rodillo puede conectarse fácilmente a una tablet o PC simplemente a través de un puerto USB. Los usuarios, con una tablet o un ordenador con Wi-Fi o datos móviles, pueden conectarse a una red disponible in situ para compartir y almacenar datos de inspección.
Applications
Applications
Krautkrämer RotoArray comPAct is designed for ergonomic, high-speed large area inspection with improved probability of detection (PoD) for composite material inspection in the aerospace, space and , wind energy industries.
The versatile applications include:
-
Composite materials inspection of aerospace structures, wind turbine blades, aluminium blades and aircraft skins (wings, fuselage), helicopter blades and complex composite castings
-
Detection and sizing of delamination and disbonds
-
Thickness measurements, material loss
-
Detection and quantification of internal porosity
Especificaciones técnicas
Krautkrämer RotoArray comPAct integrates a new, patended technology that makes an additional PA instrument unnecessary. To use it, you only need to connect the roller probe to a tablet via USB port , so the weight of the device is significantly reduced and portability maximized. You do not need an additional and heavier phased array device but just a tablet, so upfront costs are reduced.
It is planned that we will also integrate our comPAct technology into other ultrasonic instruments in the future. Krautkrämer RotoArray comPAct is the first product on the market powered by comPAct.
Krautkrämer RotoArray comPAct provides A, B, and C scan data.
Yes, there are. Krautkrämer RotoArray comPAct can be flexibly configured to the operator’s preferences.
Yes, you can. The wheel width is adjustable so the roller probe is suitable for narrow and tight areas. The wheel couples easily with non-planar surfaces.
