From Houston, Texas during the ASNT 2023 annual conferenceRichard Blaser from Inspenet had the pleasure of interviewing Gavin Dao, TPAC and AOS Business Development Director, on the revolutionary solutions they are introducing in the field of non-destructive testing (NDT).
Small in Size, Giant in Capability
TPAC prides itself on its advanced Phased Array and full array capture system, with a total focus method that is a game changer in the industry. “We enable higher resolution imaging thanks to our small footprint hardware, which is rugged and compact enough to mount on a robot,” explains Gavin. This practical and robust design approach enables more efficient inspections and unmatched performance.
Competitive Price in the Marketplace
When the issue of cost was addressed, Gavin said it varies depending on the specific software and equipment the customer chooses. TPAC offers industry-standard pricing and recommends interested parties contact directly for a customized quote.
Real-Time Adaptability
One of the highlights of TPAC’s technology is Surface Adaptive TFM. “Even if the part has ripples and is not flat, our method adapts the inspection in real time to maintain focus, something traditional devices cannot achieve,” Gavin stresses. This not only improves inspection capability but also significantly increases the quality of the images obtained.
Processing Power through Gaming
Interestingly, TPAC’s technology harnesses the processing power of graphics cards developed for gaming, such as Nvidia, and employs common but powerful laptops, such as Alienware. This capability allows them to deliver high-resolution images that are crucial for more accurate defect characterization and sizing.
