P-scan is a trade name used by FORCE Technology for it’s:
- Automated ultrasound and eddy current inspection systems
- Automatic scanners for weld inspection and corrosion mapping
- Tailor-made ultrasound and eddy current inspection solutions for complex structures
P-scan inspections are classified as non-destructing (NDT) methods.
The P-scan system has played a major role on the market for integrity inspection of technical structures since 1977. P-scan got a world-wide breakthrough in 1985 with the introduction of the PSP-3 P-scan processor unit combined with new PC software. The very compact P-scan System 4, providing the newest technology available for ultrasound systems today, is the 4th generation of P-scan systems.
As a result of the continuous development, numerous P-scan systems are now in regular use in more than 30 countries throughout the world for a variety of advanced NDT applications ranging from sub sea installations to aerospace crafts.
