Instrument Manager for Portable Ultrasonic Test Instruments

Ease of Use for Portable Ultrasonic Test Instruments

Amplector is a non-proprietary NDT software for the easy management,
evaluation, visualization, and documentation of inspection results and
instrument settings of portable ultrasonic test instruments.

Amplector is operated intuitively and supports the eld-proven work

process both in the test lab and in practice. The device-independent
software is suitable for all inspection tasks and elds of application.
Why Amplector?
The handling of instrument settings and inspection
data is often laborious, lengthy, and not very clear,
even with the state-of-the-art portable ultrasonic
test instruments. The advantages of compact instru-
ment dimensions turn into a disadvantage when it
comes to acquiring, editing, evaluating, and visual-
izing data. The operation by means of reduced in-
strument keypads and relatively small displays often
requires time, patience, and a lot more attention to
avoid keying errors. Apart from that, all instrument
manufacturers pursue their own operating philoso-
phy. To use several instruments, it is necessary to
continuously change the operating habits.
Amplector comes with a clear and straightforward
user interface regardless of the test instruments
used. The operating philosophy follows the eld-
proven process starting from the inspection task
and continuing through the instrument settings up
to the evaluation, visualization, and documenta-
tion of the inspection results. The stringent logic of
the setup is visible all the time and ensures a short
training period as well as the safe and efcient han-
dling during the daily work.

Amplector proves itself

through the clear setup of
its user interface oriented
towards the work process
in the eld regardless of
the test instrument used.

Three workspaces form

the basis with no hidden
functions.

How Amplector Works
The inspection task forms the basis
Starting from the fact that a corresponding inspec-
tion task is the basis of every ultrasonic inspection,
the inspection task also forms the basis of all subse-
quent steps in the Amplector.
Each inspection task constitutes the framework for
holding together all other data and information.
The inspection tasks can be saved, adapted, trans-
mitted, and used over and over again with different
test instruments.
The user decides on the details to be captured
either for his or her own inspections or, as a higher-
level organization, for the inspectors in the eld.

Non-proprietary integration of test instruments

In addition to the clear denition of the inspection
task, the correct setup of the test instrument is de-
cisive for reproducible inspection results. The saving
and reuse of proven instrument settings provides
safety and efciency. Amplector reads out instru-
ment settings, saves them, and transfers them to
other instruments of the same type.
Most test instruments use internal memories for the
documentation of inspection results. Amplector
brings together the inspection results saved to dif-
ferent instruments and, in this way, provides for the
traceable documentation and analysis on a clear
user interface regardless of the instrument.
