The core of the Gekko’s capability lies in its internal architecture. It generally features:
The Gekko distinguishes itself in a crowded market (dominated by Olympus, Sonatest, and Zetec) through three core pillars: gekko phased-array flaw detector
For inspectors certified to ASME V, ISO 13588, or API 1104, the Gekko solves the chronic problem of "operator dependency." By automating focal law calculations and providing crystal-clear TFM imagery, it reduces false calls and ensures that a crack in Houston looks exactly the same as a crack in Helsinki. The core of the Gekko’s capability lies in
| Specification | Gekko Rating | | :--- | :--- | | Number of Channels | 64:64 (64 elements firing, 64 receiving) | | Maximum Pulser Voltage | 110V (for high-attenuation composites) | | Digitizer Frequency | 100 MHz, 12-bit | | TFM Resolution | 1024 x 1024 points | | Battery Life | 6 hours (hot-swappable) | | Connectivity | Wi-Fi 6, Gigabit Ethernet, 2x USB 3.0 | TFM post-processes data to bring every pixel into
While standard phased array is fast, the Gekko is built for Total Focusing Method (TFM). TFM post-processes data to bring every pixel into sharp focus across the entire scan area.
For decades, conventional ultrasonic flaw detection has been a cornerstone of non-destructive testing (NDT). However, the inherent limitations of single-crystal probes—namely slow scanning speeds and difficulty imaging complex geometries—have often left inspectors with ambiguous signals. Enter the Gekko Phased-Array Flaw Detector. Designed not just as an instrument, but as a mobile inspection ecosystem, the Gekko is changing how engineers visualize integrity in critical assets.
