Efficient quality control for large areas
Ultrasonic pulse velocity testing is a proven non-destructive method for evaluating concrete quality and strength, but traditional probes are slow and limited for large-area inspections. The Insight scanner improves this by enabling fast, quantitative rolling ultrasonic scans over large surfaces using multiple wave modes to map velocity and estimate strength-related properties like dynamic elastic modulus.
This allows rapid identification of low-quality zones, targeted follow-up with 3D tomography, and a major reduction in time, cost and the need for destructive core drilling.
Inspect for accurate concrete thickness
Is your concrete slab or wall built to the correct thickness? Even small deviations can compromise structural integrity and safety. Our Insight scanner provides a definitive answer without destructive coring.
While confirming thickness, the scan also maps embedded objects and internal voids, ensuring a complete quality assessment of the as-built structure.
Inspect parking garages
Easily inspect large garage areas with the Elop Insight System. Our combination of rolling capabilities and Insight Trolley allows for quick and accurate scans. All the data is available on the spot, with no post-processing or other time-consuming steps required.
Inspect warehouses
Verify the carrying capacity of warehouse floors. Elop Insight provides accurate and reliable measurement and mapping of warehouse floor thickness, even on steel fiber reinforced concrete, at a mapping speed of up to 4 km/h.
Inspect dams
Dams are important assets for agriculture and power generation. Elop Insight makes inspection simpler for massive and complex structures by creating valuable data that supports planning and timely maintenance.
Inspect bridges
Bridges deteriorate due to structural deficiencies and lack of maintenance. Elop Insight enables a considerably more efficient and practical way of inspecting larger volumes of concrete structures like bridges.
Inspect tunnels
Structures like tunnels deteriorate due to environmental and man-made impacts. Elop Insight makes the inspection process efficient, comprehensive and productive for complex structures that require regular maintenance.
Inspect offshore platforms
Concrete installations at sea are prone to deterioration due to harsh environmental conditions. With Elop Insight, these complex structures can be inspected in an efficient and effective way for continued structural integrity and safety.
Inspect nuclear power plants
Cooling towers in nuclear power plants are critical structures. Elop Insight is designed to make inspection safer and more efficient while revealing internal defects that are otherwise difficult to verify.
