The Pipescan HD is the highest resolution MFL scanner on the market. With a high Probability of Detection (PoD), the Pipescan HD is an effective and reliable pipe inspection solution for corrosion and pitting detection.

Pipescan deployment is easy with the unique single curvature adjustment tool allowing for a quick inspection setup. No coupling or complicated gate settings are required, connect the Pipescan to the data acquisition instrument, enter inspection details, and the system is ready to go.

Furthermore, all scanned data is automatically recorded, and reports can be issued on the spot, giving asset owners immediate visibility on the health condition of their assets, enhancing productivity and efficiency.
