Ultrasonic Inspection Systems (NDT)

Customized and automated ultrasonic measurement systems meeting demanding technical criteria. Designed for inline and offline quality inspection under Industry 4.0 manufacturing standards.

Ultrasonic Instruments and Devices

The opCard and opBox instruments, paired with opMux multiplexers, deliver precision multichannel flaw detection, thickness measurement, and material characterization suitable for OEM integrations.

Transducers and Probes

Broad selection of standard and custom ultrasonic transducers covering varied frequencies, beam geometries, connector styles, and specialized housing for high-temperature and harsh environments.

Power Ultrasound Generators

The opGen series (100 W to 2000 W) utilizes real-time transducer impedance analysis to optimize working conditions across frequencies from 10 kHz to 125 kHz.

Ultrasonic Testing Scanners

Automated mechanical scanners integrated with software motion controls to map inspection zones and deliver reliable, high-resolution 2D and 3D ultrasonic imaging.

Biometric and Medical Applications

Pioneering ultrasonic holography for fingerprint biometric sensors, early breast cancer diagnostics, dental imaging, and acoustic lung monitoring.

R&D Partnerships

International collaborative research funded through EU Framework Programmes, Eurostars, and the National Centre for Research and Development (NCBiR).

Feasibility Studies

Acoustic feasibility testing, prototype evaluation, and custom test-rig concept design to de-risk production quality assurance.

Calibration & Technical Support

Complete lifecycle maintenance, accredited calibration of ultrasonic flaw detectors and sensors, spare parts supply, and standardized test reports.
