Venom Automatic Ultrasonic Scanner

Venom is the only true 3-axis NDT crawler built for seamless sensor integration, giving you fast, precise and repeatable data without compromise. Designed by NDT operators, it delivers clean signal quality, long-range reach and rapid, toolless deployment across pipelines, tanks, vessels and ship hulls.

Manual UT scanning can be slow, inconsistent and hard to repeat — especially on large, curved or vertical surfaces. Venom eliminates that problem with an agile, low-profile crawler designed to automate ultrasonic inspections across tanks, pipelines, monopiles, ship hulls and other critical assets.

Its steerable 3-axis design, rugged IP68 housing and high payload capacity make it ideal for demanding industrial environments. With plug-and-play setup, a lightweight umbilical and an intuitive wireless joystick controller, Venom gets inspections moving faster while delivering clean, repeatable data.

Compatible with EKOSCAN electronics and third-party NDT systems, Venom adapts to corrosion mapping, weld inspection, phased-array UT, conventional UT, eddy current and more — giving your team a versatile, modular platform for safer, more efficient inspections.
