Focus on UT diagnosis, while the software helps with the rest.
Testia released version 4 of the ultrasonic testing (UT) data analytics software NDTkit UT. Many new features, automatization capabilities and multi file format support make it the best and most versatile choice for accurate and quick UT analysis.
Highlight Features of NDTkit UT version 4
NDTkit UT offers an outstanding level of support for various UT data file formats. You will only need this one app to analyze data from manifold UT inspection tools from over 20 different manufacturers. We integrated support for more than 40 UT file formats (Evident, Eddyfi, Waygate etc.)! We added support for new instruments like Omniscan X3 and Panther in this latest version 4 of NDTkit UT. Over are the days when you had to carry out the repetitive processing tasks by yourself – NDTkit UT paves the way for faster and more accurate analysis thanks to customization and automatization capabilities of the software. This includes 2D & 3D segmentation, database connection, overthickness detection and many more features. The Pro version allows you to customize the software either via Python scripts or through the software development kit (SDK). Upon request, Testia can offer to develop custom plugins specifically tailored to your needs.
Two licence models available to better meet your needs
One of the major changes in the new NDTkit UT version 4 is that we now offer two license versions of the software to choose from. This way, you may select the appropriate size of your digital NDT analytics toolbox – whether you need the basic features in the Standard version or enhanced and smart functions in the Pro version:
- The Standard Version provides you with everything that you need for quick and reliable UT data analytics in a basic package.
- With the Pro Version you can take your processes to the next level with automated analysis assistance! It is dedicated for full-fledged professional use cases that require advanced functions to cope with specific needs.
We’re happy to advise you on which version to choose. Contact the Sales team now for your inquiry.
