    To measure the position and size of flaw echo. DFD30 is equipped with double-gate function: Gate A and Gate B, normally Gate A is used alone for detecting the workpiece flaw, and the double-gate is usually used in the measuring and calibration of multi-echo, eg. Measuring the distance between surface echo and first echo during thickness measurement.
