With individual setting of monitors and measurements at the zero crossing of the signal, the new A-scan ECHOMETER 1077 provides highly accurate measurement values with a measurement uncertainty of up to 0.01 mm, e. g. to meet the requirements of precision tube manufacturing or car body construction. Multiple echo measurements are employed, as well as mono-element straight probes with and without delay line.

The high-resolution A-scan display of the ultrasound signal is particularly helpful for materials with sound problems in order to optimally adjust measurement parameters such as the measurement range and the evaluation of the signal polarity.

Besides manual and automatic gain control, the selectable automatic depth compensation balances the signal attenuation of up to four of the first echoes and amplifies them to the same screen height. Thus, especially for materials with high signal attenuation, more well-evaluable multiple echoes without signal clipping are usually available.
