Inel Launches Xsolo: a nomadic system of measurement of residual tensions

The French entity Inel , specialist in the design, manufacture and commercialisation of equipment and scientific instruments of high technology for the diffraction of X-rays, has launched to the market of Xsolo, a new nomadic system of measurement of the residual tension.
The residual tensions are often considered like one of the factors that influence in the deterioration of the materials. Therefore his measurement is indispensable to determine the causes with the end to attenuate them or delete them.
This type of analysis realises usually in laboratory using small samples (maximum 15x15x2 cm) and complex devices if it treats of whole pieces or very thick. In any case, the sample has to be carried there where the measurement instruments DRX find .
Thanks to the new nomadic system Xsolo of Inel, is the own analyser the one who effects the measurement on the terrain of the residual tension and of the texture.
Of reduced dimensions (25 cm), light (<10 kg), and easy to use, Xsolo is the best current configuration in the market to calculate 'in situ' the residual tension.
Able to realise measures on important structures, Xsolo has been conceived especially to satisfy the exigencias of precise and reliable analyses. Some of his applications are:
- Control of the weldings of pipelines, pipelines, bridges, nuclear reagents.
- Industrial control in situ of critical pieces: aerospace engineering, car, etc.
- Evaluation of critical defects of big structures damaged.
- Certification of zones ‘rehabilitated' as the specifications of origin.
Inel, that is looking for distributors in Spain, has developed likewise competitions in the field of the impulsive sources of X-rays and of ultraviolet rays extremes (applicable to the metrology and to the lithography).
