Delamination
A subsurface separation that occurs horizontally within the concrete slab, splitting the concrete into internal layers. Typically caused by corrosion of internal steel rebar.
Scanner and accessories
Elop Insight
Ultrasound Scanner
The world's first rolling, dry-coupled ultrasound solution for non-destructive concrete inspection. Scan large surfaces at walking speed and get instant 3D cloud visualisation.
How it works
From concrete surface
to 3D insight in one pass.
1
Roll across the surface
The Elop Insight scanner rolls directly on the concrete using dry-coupling elastomer wheels - no gel, no water, no surface preparation needed.
2
Ultrasound signals penetrate the structure
8 channels sending and 8 channels receiving ultrasound at 50, 100 or 150 kHz, capturing subsurface data continuously as the scanner moves.
3
Data processed in real time
An onboard unit processes the signals, showing immediate results on a 7 inch touchscreen.
4
3D visualisation in the cloud
Scan data syncs to Elop Insight Portal, where defects are rendered as a full 3D model - shareable, analysable, and stored for future reference.
What we detect
Multiple defect types.
One single scan.
Elop Insight identifies a wide range of internal defects without destructive testing, drilling, coring, or disruption to operations.
Debonding
The separation of two different concrete placements or materials where they meet. This happens when a new concrete overlay or repair mortar fails to stick to the existing, hardened base concrete.
Honeycombing
Areas of the concrete where the fine mortar failed to fill the spaces between the coarse aggregate stones, leaving a cluster of empty air pockets.
Tendon ducts
Location and condition assessment of post-tensioning ducts in concrete structures.
Air pockets
Trapped air inclusions that reduce the compressive strength of the concrete. Large voids mean there is less solid mass to carry the weight.
Grouting defects
Incomplete grouting in tendon ducts - a leading cause of corrosion in post-tensioned structures.
Fiber reinforcement
Imaging and quality control of fiber-reinforced concrete elements and SFRC slabs.
Thickness and backwall
Accurate thickness measurement and backwall detection across the full scan area.

Accessory
Elop Insight Trolley
for large-scale operations.
The Insight Trolley is a purpose-built frame that the Elop Insight scanner mounts onto, unlocking large-area scanning with greater speed, stability, and consistent pressure across the scan surface.
Up to 30 000 m2 per day
Sparse-track scanning with the trolley covers much larger areas than handheld operation - ideal for parking decks, bridge slabs, and large floor areas.
Constant, even contact pressure
The trolley frame maintains optimal coupling between the elastomer wheels and the concrete surface, reducing signal noise and improving data quality.
Operator comfort on long jobs
Push-handle ergonomics reduce fatigue on extended scanning sessions, helping a single operator cover far greater distances consistently.
Quick mount, same scanner
The Insight scanner mounts directly onto the trolley frame. Switch between handheld and trolley configurations quickly.
Applications
Where Elop Insight
is deployed.
From bridge decks to industrial floors, Elop Insight supports large concrete surfaces that require reliable NDT inspection.

Tunnels
Lining integrity assessment and void detection behind segmental linings.
Parking structures
Rapid full-deck scanning covering thousands of square metres per shift.
Buildings and floors
Post-tensioned slabs, podium decks and industrial floor assessment.
