Ultrasonic pipe gauging made easier. (Keeping Up with Extrusion).The first ultrasonic wall-thickness and concentricity gauges for pipe, tube, and cable were so complex to set up that processors often didn't use them. The problem was that it took an engineer with advanced understanding of ultrasound signals to get them tuned right, according to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. instrument maker Beta LaserMike in Dayton, Ohio Dayton is a city in southwestern Ohio, United States. It is the county seat and largest city of Montgomery County. As of the 2005 census estimate, the population of Dayton was 158,873. . Last July, the company launched the UltraScan DSP (1) (Digital Signal Processor) A special-purpose CPU used for digital signal processing applications (see definition #2 below). It provides ultra-fast instruction sequences, such as shift and add, and multiply and add, which are commonly used in math-intensive (digital signal processor A digital signal processor (DSP) is a specialized microprocessor designed specifically for digital signal processing, generally in real-time computing. Characteristics of typical Digital Signal Processors
UltraScan DSP also can be used on larger-diameter pipes, thanks to the company's acquisition in August of Danish instrument maker PlastAdviser. PlastAdviser's ultrasonic gauges handle 25-in. pipe vs. at most 4 in. with Beta LaserMike's previous ultra-sonic gauges. Tel: (937) 233-9935, www.betalasermike.com |
