Summary
- Summary
- Incredibly user friendly
  The Dakota CMX10-DL Full Wave Capture Thickness Gauge is easy to navigate, simple to set up, all functions and features can be selected from the Menu icon. Create up to 50 custom setups for routine thickness inspections.
  Confident probability of detection
  The Dakota CMX10-DL A-Scan Thickness Gauge boosts confidence in probability of detection (POD) through visual waveform analysis, signal optimization tools, and stability indicators that help inspectors verify and reduce false negatives on defects like pits or corrosion.
  Full traceability for reassurance of inspection quality
  Useful variables such as transducer information, calibration methods, dates and calibration times can all be recorded, ensuring a high degree of consistency and repeatability.
  See the full picture, not just a number
  A-Scan and B-Scan recording lets inspectors visualize the material profile, review scans and accurately locate corrosion, pits and other defects.
  
  Enhanced Time Corrected Gain (TCG) and Backwall Echo Attenuation (BEA), plus flexible filtering and averaging, helps bring out critical signals in noisy or attenuative materials.
  The Dakota CMX10-DL is a powerful ultrasonic full wave thickness gauge designed for both corrosion surveys and high-precision measurements, in a rugged, field-ready package inspectors can rely on every day.
  Touchscreen and button keypad supports operation in the harshest environments.
  
  Heavy duty, rubberized, impact resistant, dust and waterproof case up to IP65.
  
  Up to 20,000 A-Scans on 128MB internal storge or approximately 5 million on a 32GB external memory card.
  
  Up to 15 hours battery life with LI-Ion Rechargeable Smart Battery or Mains Power Supply.
  
  Enhanced Time Corrected Gain (TCG) & Backwall Echo Attenuation (BEA), improving detection of porosity, inclusions, and cracks.
  
  Compatible with DakMaster™ for instant report generation and firmware updates.

  Dakota CMX10-DL Features Explained
  Time Corrected Gain (TCG)
  Improve possibility of detection
  Time Corrected Gain (TCG) and filtering lets you lift later echoes without saturating the near surface. That is useful on rough or heavily corroded backwalls where the important echoes are weak and buried in noise.
  Backwall Echo Attenuation (BEA) – enables on screen monitoring of backwall signal amplitude. A drop in backwall amplitude indicates an issue, useful in composite inspections and many other materials.
  Second Layer Inspection
  Less intrusive inspection better remaining life assessment
  The second layer/cladding measurement feature is about seeing the true condition of the base metal and liner separately.
  The gauge interprets multiple echoes so it can distinguish the outer wall from the inner liner or cladding layer beneath. In practice, that means you can get one reading for total wall and another that represents the remaining thickness of the inner liner, or outer liner, even when it is behind a coating or outer shell.
  Crack Prove-Up Capability
  Fast confirmation of critical flaw
  High-resolution, accurate crack prove-up capability for fast confirmation of critical flaws, even in complex geometries.
  The Dakota CMX10-DL Thickness Gauge increases the probability of detection of hard to detect pits and cracks using traditional angle transducer inspection methods, to supporting confident fitness-for-service decisions.
  Image Collect
  For guided inspection locations
  Upload a custom photo or CAD model of the part via DakMaster™ and then tap on that image to drive the next measurement location directly on the gauge itself.
  Internal Defect
  With point-to-point measurement
  B-Scan supports additional identification of defects in a composite layer beyond that of a traditional A- Scan gauge.
  Cursors for point to point measurement provide accurate depth measurement.
  Overlay Comparison
  Identify differences in waveforms
  The Dakota CMX10-DL ultrasonic thickness gauge can help identify differences in waveform signal patterns to indicate changes in structure or areas of concern.
