5600 QAS

Back in 1973 when we installed the first of our 400+ 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 interfaced
