PragmaPod
Remote-Control Instrument Platform for Advanced Nondestructive Testing
For Scanner-Mounting, Robot-Mounting, Automation and R&D
The PragmaPod platform is ideally suited for the most demanding system integrators. It features all the I/O interfaces and ruggedness for industrial use, and its small size allow for new capabilities.
With FPGA Ethernet communications and no CPU in the way, the data acquisition bandwidth is maximized allowing super fast inspection speeds.
- Compact
CNC-machined aluminium enclosure, for durability and fanless operation.
- Connectors for Industrial Use
Rugged twist-lock connectors for durability in the field or in the factory.
- Self-Cooling
Active cooling thanks to a fan-based heat exchanger, completely sealed without any air or water inlet.
- High-Speed and Low Latency
Very fast data throughput thanks to Gigabit Ethernet or 10Gigabit Fiber (optional), and low-latency thanks to direct FPGA implementation.
- Multi-Modal
The platform can welcome the docking of several available cartridges for a choice of modality: UT, PAUT, ECT, ECA, etc.
- Alarms
The platform feaures four LEDs and a loud buzzer to provide status information.
Highlights
Light enough to be mounted on a magnetic-wheel scanner, to simplify the umbilical.
Ideal to mount on a robot forearm, to keep the NDT probe cable short and prevent electrical noise.
Ideal for system integration: heavy-duty twist-lock connectors and integrated fan for heat-exchanger cooling (no air inlet).
The PragmaPod is modular and ready to support several cartridges for UT, PAUT, ECT, ECA and other advanced NDT methods.
