++ Customer Provides Own Integration
Buy a SmartTest™ product and enjoy the most advanced ARI system available anywhere. Depending on the age of your system and the circumstances, we often upgrade systems from EZ-NDT, Magic, Impact NDT, and/or Modal Shop. While you may not have all the features that come with a turnkey SmartTest™️ Pro or Mini, you can still enjoy vast improvements to defect detection while greatly reducing the number of false rejects. The huge increase in throughput translates to much-improved shop floor productivity and much lower inspection costs, making operations, quality, and even finance teams all happy.
