internal defect detectors people said it couldn't be done.
We even keep a copy of a PHD thesis written in 1980 that
says the same thing, around just for laughs. The same thing
was being said when we invented the 5600QAS transducer. What
these people didn't understand is that we understood the
nature of ultrasound. From our beginning we have designed
and built our own transducers to fit the job they need to
do. The model 5600QAS is our companion system to the 1000EP
for Engineered Wood. Again, when you look at the unit above
it doesn't look any different on the outside. You can rest
assured that EVERY component inside is there for one reason.
To reliably find defects (blows) in Engineered Wood products
up to 6" thick. The 5600 transducer has more than six times
the transmitter power and more than 30db higher signal to
noise ratio than our 506QAS model. Just as the 1000EP gauge
is installed in dozens of LVL and OSB plants so is the
5600QAS. From the beginning we new there was no room for
error in detecting flaws in Engineered Wood Products.
People's lives depend on the integrity of these
products. The 5600QAS is designed to be located at the out-feed
of the press. Because of our transmitter power it is not
necessary to couple heads together. Our customers will also
find it much more tolerant of high temperature and, ambient
noise than any of our competitors. When you consider that
the system can gather data in real time and has the ability
to supply historical data for those who want it, the 5600QAS
is the best buy in the industry. Every 5600
Quality Assurance System (QAS) is fully networked
