THE DOLPHICAM2 PLATFORM
THE PLATFORM
Dolphicam2 is an ultrasound imaging platform developed for non-destructive testing (NDT). Our unique 2D matrix transducer technology comes with a wide range of transducer modules, so you`ll find one that serves your needs. It`s lightweight, small and flexible, easy to use and can be operated by both experts and non-experts on NDT. Dolphicam2 brings NDT inspections to a new level with its impressive performance and unique signal processing powers. It`s the fast, reliable and best choice for your NDT-needs.
UNIQUE COMBINATION OF FREQUENCIES AND COUPLINGS
With Dolphicam2 you can choose between different transducer modules and couplings of varying softness, hardness and sizes, which enable flexible and customized inspection of multiple materials.

DOLPHITECH MATRIX TRANSDUCERS VS PHASED ARRAY
Dolphitech Matrix transducers have transducer elements placed in a 2-dimensional array. Since the transducer directly covers the area of inspection, no encoder system is needed to calculate the position of each element. Reducing the risk of positional errors due to faults or imprecision in the encoder system.
MATRIX ARRAY
Phased array transducers contain a number of individual transducers that can be pulsed individually to steer and focus the sound beam in a specific direction. Linear arrays are typically used in combination with an encoder system matching the signal with positional information to build a 2-dimensional image. The price will increase with the added number of elements and element gets smaller in size.
PHASED ARRAY
Substantial improvements in resolution are to be expected from a Dolphicam Ultrasound camera system compared to an Olympus MX phased array system.
MORE DATA THAN WE CAN USE
The TRM has 128 horizontal and 128 vertical transducer electrodes. This creates a transducer element where one horizontal line crosses a vertical line. In total 16.384 transducer elements send and receive sound to create the data, with a frame rate from 10 to 100 frames per second.
In short, our scans deliver more data than we can use for now. For you, this means that the product you buy today only will get better tomorrow.
ULTRASOUND AT ITS BEST
Spend less time calibrating and more time fixing. Turn on the device and start scanning. Dolphicam2 is ready to scan within a minute.
Large amounts of data are being processed to a user-friendly dashboard. The «Traffic lights» pallet, with real-time dataset streaming, visualizes the scan in a way that impresses experts, and lets non-experts understand what they see.
SMALL, FLEXIBLE, AND EASY ACCESS
The TRM small and ergonomic so it fits nicely in your hand. Its size and light weight makes it easy to hold, and allows you to access places that are really difficult to scan.
GET THE BIGGER PICTURE WITH STITCHING
Depending on your needs for precision and speed, we offer different methods for scanning large areas and combining multiple scans into one image. Dolphicam2 comes with multiple stitching solutions, from manual grid tool to fully automated systems, so you can find the perfect one to serve your needs.
FTD – FLEXIBLE TRANSDUCER DEVELOPMENT
Our transducer technology is very flexible, and it`s easy to customize, so you`ll always find a combination that fits your needs.

THE DOLPHICAM GRID TOOL
The Dolphicam Grid Tool is a mechanical positioning device for the Dolphicam Ultrasound Camera that makes it easy and quick to inspect large areas. Its solid construction from high-quality linear bearings ensure smooth scanning, high precision and high inspection speeds.
The GridTool is fixed to the surface by one or two robust and oversize suction cups. Setup-time is usually less than 3 minutes! Due to the low weight and powerful suction cups, the system can be placed in any orientation, even inverted on painted or shiny surfaces. The suction cup can also be removed to allow for a bolted placement if needed.
The Dolphicam is easily secured to the Grid Tool with 3 set screws. The attachment is hinged to allow access to non-planar surfaces.
Constructed using high-quality linear bearings, the Dolphicam can easily be positioned in 25 mm incremental positions over a full 50 by 50 cm area. Each camera position is secured with a ball-plunger as the operator acquire the image and before moving the camera to the next position.
The Dolphicam software allows for multiple scanning modes, including various vertical and horizontal modes as well as other features to make real-world stitching easy and fun.
A trained operator would be able to achieve a scanning rate of less than 5 secs/image, about half an hour for a 50 x 50 cm area!
The Grid Tool comes in a robust transport box.
