Phased Array "Type B" calibration wedge
The general purpose Phased Array Calibration Wedge is used for beam characterisation and evaluation of system performance characteristics.
Use it as a base block to determine long-term changes in instrument performance, generate DAC curves and evaluate the linear/angular resolution, focusing capability and steering capability of the beam.
With a variety of targets, this small, lightweight block is also perfect for customer demonstrations of multi-element ultrasound capabilities. This unit is also known as a 'Type B' unit.
Block functions :
- Four (4) angled holes (30°, 45°, 60°, 75°) at 1/16" 0.0625" diameter.
