Dakota CMX10-DL

Dakota CMX10-DL

Corrosion and Precision Thickness Gauge with A- and B-Scan Capacities

Overview

The Dakota CMX10-DL Thickness Gauge is a “universal” ultrasonic thickness gauge that can be used for virtually any common thickness gauging application. Precision measurements of thin materials with delay line probes, Corrosion and general measurements with Dual probes. Includes both A- and B- scan displays. Enhanced TCG & BEA for highly attenuative materials. Through-Coating with coating thickness is standard a NEW  2nd layer feature allows users to assess and predict remaining inner liner thickness.  

 

Features

  • A- and B- scan recording for easy scan review and depth sizing
  • Full traceability, and reassurance of inspection quality
  • 2nd layer Feature to assess and predict remaining inner liner thickness - Cladding
  • Enhanced TCG & BEA, for high attenuation materials
  • Image Collect for repeatable data collection for consistent repeatable part measurement
  • DakMaster reporting software for fast, simple report creation and sharing
  • Screen share capability for live demonstration, remote training, and collaboration
  • Advanced corrosion tools to highlight complex corrosion types such as pits and cracks

Applications

The Dakota CMX10-DL Thickness Gauge is capable of precision and corrosion inspections. Applications include: 

  • Attenuative Materials (coarse metals, composites, polymers)
  • Thick Parts
  • Castings
  • Forgings
  • Corrosion 

 

Transducer Selection

The CMX10-DL can be used with most transducers:

  • Single element
    • Contact & Delay Line
  • Dual element

The CMX-10DL can also be used for basic flaw detection applications with straight beam and angle beam transducers.
