Gantry Systems –  Rotating Tubes

These industrial ultrasonic inspection gantry systems consist of a bridge, one or two carriages, and a tube rotator.

The gantry systems are built using high-quality, state-of-the-art components to give long-lasting and trouble-free operation. All gantry axes are controlled by a motion controller module. Fine and precise helical paths over the inspected tubes are possible ensuring required tube coverage for proper ultrasonic inspection.

Electronic cabinets are located on top of carriage resulting in very short probe cables, minimizing performance-related noise.

These gantry systems offer a wide variety of inspection modes to ensure efficient and complete inspection of tubes.

Depending on customer needs, a loading/unloading mechanism can be provided with the systems.

The systems include a complete water management unit that allows for closed circuit operation and minimal water consumption.

These gantry systems are available on two basic automation platforms, Siemens or Allen Bradley.

• Tube diameters: from 2 ½ in. to 24 in.
• Tube lengths: from 8 ft. to 40 ft.
• Tube max weight: 100 lbs/ft.
