It goes without saying that it is important to upgrade inspection systems on a continuous basis. In fact, sourcing and implementing the latest NDT ultrasonic upgrades are necessary steps to ensure reliability and optimal performance.
Though its performance may have historically met testing standards, any system approaching technical obsolescence is not equipped to provide the same level of data access, analysis, and monitoring capabilities as the systems available in our portfolio of newer product offerings. Neglecting to upgrade an ultrasonic testing machine can be detrimental to plantwide output and performance. We offer NDT ultrasonic upgrades for a variety of Krautkrämer branded products to keep your outputs consistent.
In addition to performance, ensuring your system is in good standing and conforming to the ever-changing compliance standard is paramount. However, it should come as no surprise that, though essential, an upgrade to an inspection system can be a tedious process.
By futureproofing your system with essential NDT ultrasonic upgrades, you can greatly reduce the risk of plantwide downtime and ultimately profit from the latest developments in ultrasonic instrumentation and software.
Ultrasonic system upgrades are a significantly less expensive alternative to purchasing a new machine in order to keep up with increasing competition and regulatory requirements for physical assets management, machine protection, and device reliability/availability.
We don't believe in the "one size fits all" approach. Your Waygate Technologies sales contact will work with you and our expert team to assess your current system and requirements. We then use that data to partner with you as we structure a customized solution set that fits your individual needs.
