Key Advantages of ELOTEST PL500

extremely fast:
– 100 kHz bandwidth for the test signal
– Inspection at 100 m/sec and a resolution of 1 mm

extremely low noise + stable:
– fully digitised signal processing

extremely variable:
– up to 256 channels / functional modules

Faster, higher, more powerful – the new family of eddy current test instruments featuring V5-technology, very high test speed, very high sensitivity and very high resolution and dynamics has got what it takes to be an overall winner!

The Elotest PL500 is the first eddy current test instrument of the V5-family, „specially designed for inline-testing“. It comes in a 19” and 4HU industrial housing and features up to 16 plug-in modules. By using additional racks, it may be expanded to 256 plug-in modules. The modules could be fully synchronized test channels, distance compensation modules, I/O-modules our customer-specific evaluation modules.

The main feature of all V5- instruments is the completely digital signal processing chain on the NF-side (after demodulation) with an extremely great bandwidth of 100kHz and ultra-fast multiplexing-capability featuring a multiplexing rate of 50kHz for 64 channels.

The full dynamics of 96dB (digital) across the entire frequency range from 1Hz to 12.5MHz speak for themselves – extreme dynamics and extremely low noise both guarantee crisp eddy current signals with high significance.

The display is something special, too:
The display of an analogue tube is simulated in a digital manner – simply the best analogue display, if it wasn’t digital and thus a low-key combination of traditionally proven and modern technology!

But what is the use of the ELOTEST PL500 for the customer? Here are some examples:
  • Long products (e. g. wires) could be inspected at a very high speed and great precision with fast rotors during the production process.
  • Rail-inspection trains could inspect the railway system under the same conditions as today, but at the speed of an ICE high-speed train (!)
  • Riveted seams (e. g. longitudinal) on aircraft could theoretically be inspected at “flight speed” (!).
  • Probe-arrays with 64 elements could inspect material surfaces with test speeds of up to 1m/s.
Adding the new QL500 high-end sorting module will give you additional features:
  • Multi-batch multi-frequency sorting with Self-learning free shape gates.
  • Retroactive modifications of the sorting criteria by adding/removing good/bad parts.
  • Fast multi-channel sorting that determines the reversal point for free-falling parts.
  • Simultaneous sorting and crack detection in random combinations.
