Capture

Be the best inspector you can be

Capture™ is the streamlined software embedded in M2M Gekko® and Mantis™ portable flaw detectors, and also available for PC. It is dedicated to conventional Ultrasonic Testing (UT), Phased Array UT (PAUT), Time-of-Flight-Diffraction (TOFD), Total Focusing Method (TFM) and Adaptive Total Focusing Method (ATFM). Continuously updated based on industry feedback, be the best inspector you can be.

What's new in Capture

  • Advanced component (3D CAD, nozzle, fillet welds…) available for PAUT & TFM
  • Multi-group/multi-mode/multi-probe TFM
  • Advanced analysis (floating gates, corrosion auto-sizing, indication merge, TOFD, Cscan scrolling)
  • Embedded scan plan 
  • Connectivity (update, report generation,TeamViewer…) 
  • Improved ergonomics (beam balancing, scrolling zoom, optimized workflow))

Details

One UT software from setup to reporting

All the same intuitive software tools and features are available in the Gekko and Mantis instruments and the PC version.

  • Application-oriented templates, step by step setup configuration
  • Complete probe, wedge, and scanner libraries
  • Custom probe creation, including DLA/DMA probes
  • Focal law calculation with linear, matrix, DLA, DMA probes
  • Scan plan for procedure compliance
  • Analysis and reporting
  • Customizable inspection report

Capture offers a quick way to improve knowledge and requires minimal training time for phased array inspectors.

M2M Capture workflow

Streamlined workflow

Calibration wizard

Unique 3-click calibration wizards

Smart calibration wizards fulfill the requirements of your existing procedure:

  • Part and wedge velocity calibration
  • Amplitude balancing and dead element check
  • Best-in-class wedge delay + angle calibration - including AOD/COD wedges
  • Beam balancing for PAUT sensitivity calibration (ACG)
  • Innovative TCG calibration - including TFM

Historically, essential calibration steps such as wedge verification and TCG have been complicated and time-consuming. Capture does it accurately, quickly, and efficiently.

TFM for the field - our DNA

Benefiting from over 8 years of experience with TFM in the field, Capture offers:

  • Multi-probe, multi-group, and multi-mode TFM configurations
  • Various transmission modes (FMC, sparse, PWI) and FMC recording
  • Compatible with linear, matrix, DLA, and DMA probes up to 128 elements
  • Unique grid verification tool compliant with ASME-V / ISO 23865
  • Typical 1 inch weld inspection from both sides up to 130 mm/sec (5 in/sec)
  • Advanced component (3D CAD, nozzle, fillet welds…) inspection available for direct modes (LL, TT)

TFM offers improved data quality allowing more accurate sizing to reduce false calls in full compliance with the latest codes and standards.

Multi-group and multi-mode TFM configurations

Fully embedded scan plan

Offering advanced solutions

Capture provides advanced solutions through a streamlined workflow.

  • 3-axis nozzle inspection, including parametric weld configuration
  • Fillet welds (T, Y) with multi-skip ray tracing
  • True CAD import
  • Embedded scanner controls for the RMS PA, R-Scan Array, and LYNCS
  • Paintbrush 2D mapping with 3-axis rotating arm
  • Unique Adaptive TFM (ATFM) solution for wavy surfaces

For these advanced inspections, Capture provides a higher Probability of Detection (POD) with improved and faster defect characterization.

Analysis made simple

Capture offers all the tools necessary for efficient and reliable data analysis.

  • Complete set of views and custom layout edition
  • Advanced readings banner
  • Floating gates for enhanced corrosion data quality
  • Accurate geometry display for better assessment
  • Auto-detection and sizing for corrosion and weld
  • Advanced reporting tools, customizable indication table
  • Data stitching and export (PDF and Excel)

Capture remains focused on simplifying analysis to improve sizing and accuracy, increase productivity and repeatability while respecting code inspection requirements.
