HOW WILL FERRO SCANNING BENEFIT YOU?

If you know exactly what is in the wall, and where it is, you avoid hitting any steel reinforcing, pipework or other structural supports; therefore enhancing not only the safety of your team but also the structure's stability too.

HOW DOES FERRO SCANning WORK?

Using pulse technology, the PS 1000 X-Scan, manufactured by industry experts Hilti and Proceq, detects anything in the required ground, slab or wall area and provides expert data analysis, evaluation and report generation that are visible both in the field and back in the office. Downloaded information can be used to create detailed documents with diagrams & data for analysis by our Ferro scan engineers in real time.

WHAT ARE FERRO SCANS IDEAL FOR?
