Technologies is excited to announce the release of Capture™ version 3.1.
Capture is the software driving both the M2M Gekko® and the M2M Mantis™
portable instruments and was the first commercial software of its kind
to offer real-time TFM (Total Focusing Method). Since 2013, the software
has continuously evolved to offer more and more advanced features,
while keeping a strong focus on simplicity and ease of use for thousands
of users worldwide.
This latest version is a major milestone for the M2M product line: with
Codes and Standards now incorporating TFM as a recognized NDT technique,
Capture is the best ally to make sure that every aspect of the setup is
code compliant. If offers the best TFM on the market and comes with
best-in-class wizards to minimize ramp-up time for new operators. Thanks
to the new Amplitude Fidelity wizard, the software validates
experimentally that the TFM grid size is adequate for the inspection –
while some manufacturers only offer a theoretical calculation, adding an
experimental validation is key to ensure proper sensitivity and success
in real-life conditions.
One of the most striking innovations in this latest Capture version is a
new kind of TFM called Plane Wave Imaging (PWI) coming from the medical
world. “Because we have been working on TFM for years, we feel it is
our responsibility to always be on the lookout for cutting-edge
variations and technological improvements. PWI is a form of TFM that
allows for unprecedented scanning speed, while offering improved
sensitivity and code compliance. With Capture, customers will always
have the fastest TFM on the market. After all, TFM is more than just an
image.” says Fred Reverdy, long-time M2M and CEA ultrasonic expert.
Significant efforts have also been invested to provide new analysis
tools, both on the portable instruments and for PC users. Capture PRO is
an optional PC-based version that allows advanced data analysis with 3D
data overlays and assisted sizing. Greg Benoist, Capture Product
Manager stresses: “The idea is to offer all features in one software
platform, with one graphical user interface. There is no need for third
party tools or plugins: Capture takes you from setup configuration –
including scan plans – to advanced analysis and complete reporting all
in a coherent ecosystem with a familiar, convivial interface reducing
training requirements and facilitating optimal inspection results,
whether you use a portable flaw detector or the PC software.”
Finally, ergonomics has been improved on all levels of the interface:
from data manipulation to quickaccess shortcuts, Capture is constantly
improving to remain the easiest software to use for PAUT and
TFM. “Our robust roadmap is filled with
innovative features. As a nimble organization, we keep listening to what
customers are saying and this is a driving force for us. I have no
doubt customers will love the upcoming releases of the software.” says
Guillaume Neau, Director of M2M products.
