TraiNDE UT

TraiNDE UT, an innovative tool for the training of NDT operators
 
EXTENDE is pleased to introduce the first product of its new TraiNDE line: TraiNDE UT!

TraiNDE UT is a manual Ultrasonic Testing simulator that helps trainers teach operators on Ultrasonic Testing. It reproduces real inspection conditions for a number of applications. Trainers will be able to deliver clearer information using its educational functionalities with real examples.

The dynamic displays and probe handling mimic real inspection behaviors: the operator handles a dummy probe on the digital mockup. Its position and skew are located on the block, and the related signal is displayed on the digital UT device in real time!

Discover TraiNDE UT now through its dedicated website!

Developing TraiNDE in Nouvelle-Aquitaine
 

TraiNDE UT

  Designed and produced in our Pessac premises (near Bordeaux), the TraiNDE project is supported by the Nouvelle-Aquitaine French region. In October 2018, its President, Mr. Alain Rousset, did us the honor to attend the inauguration of the TraiNDE prototype. You can check out the video going back over this milestone in the development of TraiNDE.

Using Metamodels to build POD curves in CIVA
 

Using Metamodels to build POD curves in CIVA

  Beyond simulation models, the use of a metamodel, in other words "a model of the model", can be really useful when there is a need to generate a very large amount of data. It can be particularly helpful for sensitivity analysis or POD (Probability Of Detection) studies. Discover how CIVA software can help you build POD curves with Metamodels in this short video.
