Creaform, a business of AMETEK, Inc. and a global leader in portable and automated 3D measurement technologies, has announced the launch of the Creaform Integrity Suite, a comprehensive software platform designed to modernize non-destructive testing (NDT) workflows across oil and gas, power generation, aerospace and transportation sectors.
Built to streamline surface damage assessment, the Integrity Suite brings a revamped, intuitive interface with configurable tools aimed at improving the speed, clarity and reliability of corrosion, mechanical damage and structural integrity inspections. The platform supports asset owners in making faster, more informed decisions backed by accurate 3D data.
At the center of the ecosystem is the new HandySCAN 3D|EVO Series, Creaform’s latest handheld 3D scanner engineered for field-grade durability and precision. The scanner introduces a built-in touchscreen, enabling operators to manage and execute inspections directly on the device—minimizing dependence on laptops or secondary hardware. With its Guide Inspection mode, users can perform preconfigured workflows with fewer steps, reducing complexity in demanding environments.
Enhanced mobility is enabled through the Mobility Kit, which provides wireless functionality for inspections in constrained, elevated or hazardous areas—eliminating cable limitations common in traditional NDT setups.
The HandySCAN 3D|EVO also features an integrated 12 MP camera for comprehensive visual documentation and AR-supported operator guidance. The camera ensures consistent traceability across critical NDT operations without the need for additional imaging equipment. When paired with the Integrity Suite, the scanner effectively becomes the inspection procedure itself, integrating acquisition, visualization and reporting into a single workflow.
The Integrity Suite is supported by four sector-specific modules:
- Pipeline Module: Provides detailed on-site wrinkle, corrosion and strain-based assessment to help pipeline operators diagnose structural issues and make timely repair decisions.
- Aircraft Module: The first dedicated 3D visualization tool for dent and surface damage characterization on aircraft structures, enabling maintenance teams to review high-fidelity data for further analysis.
- Pressure Equipment Module: Delivers absolute thickness-loss measurements on curved and complex geometries and supports Fitness for Service (API 579) evaluations for operational decision-making.
- Analysis Toolkit: Offers day-to-day inspection and reverse engineering capabilities—including blend analysis, cross-sectional evaluation, bend radius measurement, and IGES/STEP export for retrofits.
Each module is optimized for industry-specific workflows with customizable inspection steps, parameters and automated reporting. The new PDF report generator eliminates manual editing, enabling instant creation of compliant reports—reducing documentation errors and speeding up training for new users.
Made in Canada, the Integrity Suite is supported by multilingual customer assistance and includes built-in learning tools such as the Insight Channel, interactive tooltips and onboarding aids. The Creaform.OS Viewer enhances collaboration by allowing teams to share and access inspection insights more efficiently.
With its combination of advanced 3D scanning, guided inspection logic, wireless operation and automated reporting, the Creaform Integrity Suite positions itself as a major advancement in digital NDT, enabling industries to perform high-confidence inspections with greater mobility, repeatability and speed.
