The BondMaster 1000e+ allows users to select the best method for a particular application and to inspect a wide variety of composite materials. Its high performance, light weight, and rugged durability make it the ideal choice for applications related to the manufacturing, maintenance, and repair of composite materials.
With customer-interchangeable displays, the BondMaster 1000e+ offers users the highest resolution available today. The availability of a color or monochrome LCD for indoor or bright outdoor conditions, or a high-bright electroluminescent display (ELD) for normal to dark conditions provides the ultimate in flexibility and convenience. Its rugged, well-designed housing, uncomplicated front panel, SmartKnob™, and built-in PowerLink™ technology make the BondMaster 1000e+ a truly revolutionary and user-friendly handheld flaw detector.
The BondMaster 1000e+ uses PowerLink technology to automatically configure the instrument when a probe is connected. Built-in calibration modes assist the user in optimizing the test parameters. A variety of probes is available for each of the test technologies.
BondMaster 1000e+ Specifications
Inspection Methods
When a probe is connected to the BondMaster™ 1000e+, the instrument is automatically configured for the probe type.
The five inspection methods are pitch-catch (RF, impulse, and swept), MIA (mechanical impedance analysis), and resonance.
Pitch-Catch RF: Measures amplitude and phase changes using a short burst of energy to detect disbonds. Displays information in envelope or vector display format. An impedance display is available from the RF data. Requires no couplant.
Pitch-Catch Impulse: Measures amplitude and phase changes using a short burst of energy to detect disbonds. Displays information in envelope or vector display format. Requires no couplant.
Pitch-Catch Swept: Measures amplitude and phase changes using a swept frequency method to detect disbonds. Requires no couplant (5 kHz to 100 kHz).
MIA: Measures the stiffness characteristics of the material under test. The output is measured in both phase and amplitude. Requires no couplant.
Resonance: Detects disbonds by changes in phase and amplitude of probe resonance. Requires couplant.

Probes and Accessories
All BondMaster™ 1000e+ probes include PowerLink™ functionality. Pitch-catch (S-PC), MIA (S-MP), and resonance (S-PR) probes are available.
BondMaster PC Interface Software: Enables data transfer to PC.
Pitch-Catch Probes
Pitch-Catch mode uses high-frequency sound waves to transmit surface waves into the test part. A separate receiving element, a set distance from the transmitter, picks up the energy transmitted into the material. The sound waves are carried in a plate-wave mode across the test piece between the two probe tips.
MIA Probes
The Mechanical Impedance Analysis (MIA) test mode uses a single-tipped dual-element probe. A drive element generates sound waves and a receive element detects the effect of the structure on probe-tip loading.
Resonance Probes
The Resonance mode contact transducer is driven at its resonant frequency and coupled to the sample using a low-viscosity couplant. Impedance changes in the sensor are analyzed to detect changes in the test sample.
