Weld inspection of ferrous surfaces hasn't been easier.

Surprisingly simple, yet extremely capable, this manual, magnetic scanner delivers encoded probe positioning for up to four (2 TOFD and 2 Phased Array) probes. The STIX - 4 Probe Weld Scanner uses a spring-loaded encoder and magnetic wheels to offer a simple, functional scanner which requires minimal adjustment between scan setups.
