Conduct fast, reliable thickness measurements through paint and coatings on metal structures. The Cygnus 2 is a portable Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge utilizing the Multiple-Echo technique to provide accurate metal thickness measurement through thick coatings. It eliminates the costly need to remove paint or protective layers, maximizing efficiency for corrosion surveys on ships, tanks, and pipelines. Supplier: Cygnus Instruments Ltd.
This is a compact and durable ultrasonic thickness gauge with a rugged, shock-proof design for use in harsh industrial settings. It uses the Multiple-Echo principle to measure material thickness and find corrosion, even through heavy coatings. The device allows for quick and accurate metal thickness inspection without needing to remove protective coatings, saving considerable time and preparation effort.
