Gekko M2M Phased Array Flaw Detector

Gekko® is a field-proven flaw detector offering PAUT, UT, TOFD and TFM through the streamlined user interface Capture™. Released in 32:128, 64:64 or 64:128 channel configurations, M2M Gekko combines high-resolution and speed while reducing inspectors’ training time.

Reinventing High-definition Portable UT

Pioneering real-time TFM since 2013, Gekko innovation keeps being driven by market applications. Used in accredited training centers and ready for TFM standards, it benefits from advanced algorithms through a streamlined software user interface (Capture). Simply powerful, Gekko brings the latest technology at your fingertips.

Built for All-level UT Inspectors

With continuously added tools in one standalone application, Capture eases the inspection process and reduces operator errors. Without the need to use third-party software to load basic and advanced procedures, all-level UT inspectors have access to performance through a visual and guided interface. Capture offers a quick way to improve PAUT knowledge and requires minimum training for phased array inspectors.

Benefits

  • Increased accuracy with high-resolution imaging
  • Advanced defect analysis with Total Focusing Method (TFM)
  • Robust field unit with high battery autonomy
  • Easy setup with embedded scan plans
  • Evolutive software following inspectors feedback

Applications

  • Multi-group weld inspection procedures fully covered
  • HTHA and hydrogen damages inspection with TFM
  • Thick welds and CRA/stainless steel weld inspection enhanced with 128-element aperture
  • Corrosion mapping of large areas (up to 5 × 5 m [16.4 × 16.4 ft] / 1 mm [0.04 in] step)
  • Complex geometry dedicated solution for nozzle and fillet welds (Y and T joints)

Designed for the Field

Gekko, the #1 PAUT unit with Total Focusing Method (TFM), has been upgraded based on inspectors’ feedback. Offering both conventional UT, TOFD and advanced PAUT, Gekko is the most versatile unit adapted to field conditions.

A Complete PAUT Portable Unit

Gekko includes all basics and advanced UT features in a reinforced compact casing designed for field use. It natively comes with conventional UT, TOFD and all beam-forming phased array UT techniques for single-beam and multi-group inspection and its 3-encoded axis capabilities make the Gekko ready for any challenging inspection. This rugged PAUT equipment also offers real-time TFM/FMC (Full Matrix Capture) and Adaptive TFM techniques.

Portable & Robust

Bumpers and connectors are designed for robustness and accessories versatility. The bright resistive touch screen allows outdoor use in rough conditions. Powered by 2 hot-swappable batteries, Gekko now reaches up to 6 hours of autonomy and becomes the ultimate reference in its product range. Designed for IP66 with a drop test rating in accordance with MIL-STD-810G, the rugged enclosure can withstand the harshest site conditions.

Fast Connectivity Solution

The connectivity solutions—dongle-activated Wi-Fi™, USB 3.0 connector and Gigabit Ethernet output—allow to speed up data transfer and to remotely control your inspection in challenging conditions (TeamViewer license included). Moreover, the 256 GB SSD makes the operator’s work very comfortable with unlimited data file size, thus saving time in the field.

Gekko Water and Drop Test

No Compromise on Performance

The innovative electronics offers up to 128 channels, great signal quality and TFM resolution for improved detection and confidence. It now reaches a high scan speed and productivity.

Compatible With Most Accessories

Coming with an IPEX type PA connector and a LEMO16 encoder, Gekko is compatible with Eddyfi® accessories and most probes and scanners on the market. For other configurations, Eddyfi can provide the adapter to ensure compatibility with your current accessory.
