Thermo Electron Corporation, formerly Texas Nuclear, has unveiled the new TN Alloy Pro - described as the smallest PMI (positive material identification) machine in the world and capable of providing fast, reliable and safe operation.
Designed for the inspection and valuation of metal components, the TN Alloy Pro uses X-ray fluorescence (XRF) technology for precise identification of metal alloy compositions. The smallest and lightest XRF alloy analyser on the market, it can penetrate a 2-inch diameter hole up to 4-inches deep to enable inspection right into the ultrasonic thickness gauge holes that are blanketed by insulation. The bright, colour display can be seen easily during outside work or inside the receiving warehouse. The display can pivot to any viewing angle to permit uninterrupted work.
The TN Alloy Pro is an essential inspection and valuation device for a variety of industries, according to Thermo. It is said to have an unmatched ergonomic design, while a simple software program provides for ease of use while allowing customisation and flexibility. The non-destructive nature of XRF does not create stress risers or surface damage - critical for in-service components, the company underlines.
