The Sonatest Veo3 retains the best features of the established Veo line and adds a PCAP touch interface, user templates and live TFM capability. Its real-time multi-scan and multi-technique architecture lets inspectors run phased array, TOFD and TFM views at the same time. They can keep working to their approved procedures while gaining the extra resolution and sizing performance of TFM.
This 16:64PR / 2UT:PR BNC customer kit comes ready for phased array and TOFD weld inspection, with TOFD software, UTstudio+ analysis software, batteries, power supply and a Storm transport case. It's backed by a 2-year warranty and can be upgraded in the field as your work grows.

Key Features
 | Superior digital technologyA 32-channel PA beamformer with enhanced digital signal processing delivers exceptional signal-to-noise ratio. A 64-bit Linux system with a fast 128 GB SSD records huge acquisitions in a single file, and the multi-technique architecture lets you view TFM, phased array and TOFD scans at the same time. |
Intuitive touch workflowThe application-driven menus, PCAP touchscreen and user templates make setup second nature. Wizards for sound velocity, wedge delay, TCG, DAC, TOFD setup and encoder calibration come standard. A 3D inspection plan shows where probes sit on the part, with focal law changes applied instantly at 0.1° angle resolution. |  |
 | Live TFM and FMC readyWith the Live TFM option, the Veo3 generates up to six live TFM scans from multiple FMC sources, with images of up to 500,000 pixels at up to 100 pixels per mm. Full Matrix Capture data can be recorded for detailed analysis and comparison with previous inspections to track flaw and corrosion growth. |
TFMi intermodal imagingDeveloped with Holloway NDT, TFMi combines up to 4 live TFM modes in one image. It gives high-precision height assessment and better shape accuracy than conventional phased array, making defect characterization in welds far easier. |  |
Built for the Field
TOFD included
Two conventional UT channels with a 400 V ActiveEdge pulser and 4 BNC connectors run TOFD and UT scans alongside phased array. TOFD software is included in this kit.
UTstudio+ analysis software
One UTstudio+ license is included to manage setups, analyze data and build detailed reports. The free UTview viewer lets colleagues review results, and UTmap stitches C-scans into large tiled images.
Remote control with Xpair
Control the Veo3 from a PC over a simple network connection. With the Xpair Cloud option, an expert anywhere in the world can pilot the instrument remotely.
Rugged and field ready
The enclosure is designed for IP66, and hot-swappable batteries give about 6 hours of operation without shutting down.
Upgradeable in the field
Add the 32 pulser/receiver or 128-channel upgrades, Live TFM, FMC/TFM post-processing, phased array curved surface correction, CSV export or Xpair Cloud as software options.
