    CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION The Dakota Ultrasonics model MMX-7 is a digital ultrasonic thickness gauge with a time based B-Scan and alpha numeric data logger. Based on the same operating principles as SONAR, the MMX-7 is capable of measuring the thickness of various materials with accuracy as high as ±...

  • Page 6: Chapter Two Quick Startup Guide

    CHAPTER TWO QUICK STARTUP GUIDE Turn the MMX-7 on and off using the switch located on the bottom right corner of the keypad. When MMX-7 is initially turned on, a flash logo and blinking lights will be displayed prior to entering into the main measurement screen. Note: This section is primarily written as a basic startup guide only.
  • Page 7 ESC to cancel the selecting the transducer. 2.2 Probe Zero & Calibration The next step is to calibrate the MMX-7 to the material and transducer being used. If the materials sound velocity is unknown, the MMX-7 can be calibrated to a known thickness sample.
  • Page 8 If the material velocity is known, the user may wish to simply enter the velocity number into the MMX-7, rather than have the MMX-7 calculate the velocity value on using a know thickness. The steps for entering the velocity are outlined below: Using a Known Material Velocity 1) Press the MENU key once to activate the menu items tab.

  • Page 12 Dakota Ultrasonics Basic Material Type If the material velocity is unknown, and a sample thickness cannot be taken from the material, the user may opt to choose a basic material type from a list with approximate velocity numbers. It’s important to note that these velocities will not always be an exact representation of the material being tested.
  • Page 13 MMX-7 Data Logging Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge 2.3 Measure The MMX-7 is now ready to measure. There are two different measurement view options, each with a specific purpose – Digits & B-Scan. The steps below outline how to toggle between the different view mode options: Selecting the Measurement View Option 1) Press the MENU key once to activate the menu items tab.
  • Page 14 Dakota Ultrasonics been set to BSCAN. Use the following steps to adjust these settings directly from the measurement screen as follows: Adjusting the Start (B-ST) & Depth (B-DEP) Press the MEAS key once to activate the measure menu items. Press the MEAS key multiple times to move right and the ESC key multiple times to move left, until the either the B-ST or B-DEP cell is highlighted.
  • Page 15 MMX-7 makes 4 measurements a second. In scan mode, the MMX-7 makes 32 measurements a second. When the MMX-7 is idle, only the left vertical bar and the underline will be displayed. However, when the MMX-7 is making a measurement, five or six of the bars should be displayed on the repeatability indicator.

  • Page 16: Chapter Three Keyboard, Menu, & Connector Reference

    CHAPTER THREE KEYBOARD, MENU, & CONNECTOR REFERENCE 3.1 Menu Key (Operation & Sub Menus ) The Menu key activates the primary menu structure containing 9 menu tab groups. These tab groups then contain sub menu items, or functions. The sub menu items have been organized in tab groups according to how closely they are related to the individual tab group names.
  • Page 17 Zero: The MMX-7 is zeroed in much the same way that a mechanical micrometer is zeroed. If the MMX-7 is not zeroed correctly, all of the measurements made using the MMX-7 may be in error by some fixed value. Refer to the section on page 32, for an explanation of this important procedure.
  • Page 18 Dakota Ultrasonics AGC: The MMX-7 is equipped with an automatic gain control when operating in echo-echo mode only. This is much like turning the volume up or down on a stereo receiver. However, the MMX-7 will automatically control how much the volume is turned up or down.
  • Page 19 Refer to page 77 for further info. Default Setup: Loads a basic default setup. Use only as a last resort when the setups in the MMX-7 have been corrupted and a computer is not accessible. Refer to page 79 for further info.

  • Page 22 Dakota Ultrasonics 1) Use the UP, DOWN, LEFT, and RIGHT arrow keys to increase and decrease the values of the hot function fields. 2) Repeat step 1 until the desired value has been achieved. Alternatively , the B-ST and B-DEP hot function fields can be changed using the Digit Edit Box as follows: 1) Press the ENTER key to display the Digits Edit Box.
  • Page 23 3.15 MULTI MODE Key The MULTI MODE key toggles the measurement mode of the MMX-7, from pulse- echo (flaw mode), to echo -echo (thru paint) mode. This is a quick automatic preset mode that enables the user to change modes without having to manually adjust the mode between pulse-echo and echo-echo.

  • Page 25: Chapter Four Principals Of Ultrasonic Measurement

    CHAPTER FOUR PRINCIPALS OF ULTRASONIC MEASUREMENT 4.1 Time versus thickness relationship Ultrasonic thickness measurements depend on measuring the length of time it takes for sound to travel through the material being tested. The ratio of the thickness versus the time is known as the sound velocity. In order to make accurate measurements, a sound velocity must be determined and entered into the instrument.
  • Page 26 Pulse-echo mode measures from the initial pulse (sometimes referred to as an artificial zero) to the first echo (reflection). In this mode, the transducer is placed on a reference disk, located on top of the MMX-7, and a key is pressed to establish a zero point for the particular transducer.
  • Page 27 MMX-7 Data Logging Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge packaged in a single housing but acoustically isolated from each other with a sound barrier. This allows the transducer the ability to achieve very high sensitivity for detecting small defects. Also, the surface of the test material does not have to be as flat in order to obtain good measurements.
  • Page 28 The repetition rate is how often the MMX-7 generates a burst of ultrasound. The MMX-7 has a fixed repetition rate of 1 kHz, or 1000 times per second. The MMX-7 updates the display 4 times per second in regular measurement mode and 32 times a second in hi speed scan mode.

  • Page 29: Chapter Five Selecting The Measurement Mode

    SELECTING THE MEASUREMENT MODE 5.1 The setup library The MMX-7 contains 64 user configurable preset locations to store custom setups for easy recall. These setups can be optimi zed for the user’s specific application needs and can also be stored on a PC and transferred bi-directionally using Dakota’s PC interface software included with the instrument.
  • Page 30 Dakota Ultrasonics Thru coating measurements require special high damped transducers. The most common transducers are the 3.5, 5, and 7.5MHz hi damped transducers. These transducers are suitable for use in both pulse-echo and echo-echo modes. This conveniently enables the user to accurately measure overall material thickness using the thru Coating mode, and then conveniently switch to pit detection mode without changing transducers.

  • Page 36 If the MMX-7 is not zeroed correctly, all of the measurements taken, may be in error by some fixed value. In order to perform a probe zero, the MMX-7 must be in pulse- echo mode. If echo-echo mode was previously selected in the last section, skip this section and continue on to the next.
  • Page 37 8) Press the MEAS key to return to the measurement screen. 6.3 Material Calibration In order for the MMX-7 to make accurate measurements, it must be set to the correct sound velocity of the material being measured. Different types of materials have different inherent sound velocities.
  • Page 38 - optimizing linearity over large ranges. The Two Point calibration allows for greater accuracy over small ranges by calculating the probe zero and velocity. The MMX-7 provides four simple methods for setting the sound-velocity outlined below: Calibration to a known velocity 1) Press the MENU key once to activate the menu items tab.
  • Page 39 MMX-7 Data Logging Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge Finally, press the MEAS key to return to the measurement screen and begin taking readings.
  • Page 40 Note: It’s always best to calibrate on the thickest location on the sample, rather than on the thinnest location, as the percentage error is much less with respect to the MMX-7’s resolution of +/- .001” (0.01mm).

  • Page 52 Dakota Ultrasonics 9) Finally, press the MEAS key to return to the measurement screen and begin taking readings. Starting depth (B-ST) The starting B-ST, or starting depth, is the starting thickness value. Often times this value will simply be set to zero in order to start measuring at 0.000”. The only time this value will be set to something other than zero, is if the user needs to zoom in even closer.
