M2M pocket system, here presented with the “Sinus arm” from Metalscan. Real-time and scaled C-scan, with A and B-scan displays. The animation illustrates the “paintbrush” inspection of a composite calibration sample.

Manual scan using flexible array

2D flexible array (IMASONIC, 64 elements) used in conjunction with a M2M MULTIX 64 system. The position of the probe is encoded. The 3D sectorial scan is displayed in real-time while performing the scan. Video courtesy of the CEA (Nuclear Research Center, France).
