Features

IoT-Enabled Thickness Monitoring: Utilizes the Internet of Things (IoT) for real-time, non-destructive testing (NDT) of wear elements.
Versatile Transducer Compatibility: Compatible with 2 and 5 MHz transducers, capable of measuring steel thicknesses up to 15 mm and non-metallic materials like HDPE up to 40 mm.
Long-Distance Communication: Connects with the hub up to 140 meters away in line of sight and supports networks of up to 30 devices per hub.
Adjustable Reporting Frequency: Thickness report intervals can be customized to meet customer needs, with a battery life extending up to 24 months.
Industry Integration: The measurement, installation, and operation technology is compatible with existing manual ultrasound techniques, ensuring seamless integration with industry standards.
Web Portal Access: A secure web portal with access credentials allows users to review thickness measurements, offering a visual reference of the installation and enabling navigation of asset conditions and measurement points at any time.

Operation

ME Elecmetal personnel handle the installation and configuration of UTW devices, attaching them to target wear elements and coordinating with the central hub. Once setup is complete, clients receive access credentials for the ME Elecmetal UTW portal, where they can monitor their assets, track wear rates, and set alerts for proactive maintenance management.
