RoGeo·Xt incorporates unique high-resolution technology combining a touchless electronic measuring system with the conventional caliper arm tools. This dynamic compensation technology provides highly accurate results both under dynamic and static conditions.
RoGeo·Xt Technology
The tool is based on an innovative concept: it combines a traditional mechanical caliper arm with an electronic distance measurement system, thereby optimizing measurement accuracy and providing 100% circumferential coverage. Traditional mechanical caliper tool designs generate position signals on the basis of the movements of a mechanical arm. Since increased tool speeds mean that the mechanical arm can lose contact with the inner pipe wall while abrupt changes in the internal surface may lead to inaccurate measurements, this puts severe limitations on inspection speed. RoGeo·Xt overcomes these difficulties thanks to its "mechatronic" design.
RoGeo·Xt includes XYZ Mapping. To ensure maximum inspection performance overall, RoGeo·Xt can be combined with other inspection technologies such as MFL, UT and SIC, to increase the inspection efficiency.
Characteristic features of the geometry inspection tool include:
- Mechanical and electronic sensor units
- Inertia compensation
- Contour characterization
- Unaffected by wax and scale
- Operationally reliable
- On-board XYZ mapping
- Integrates with other in-line inspection technologies
- Circumferential coverage 100%
