These gauges are the answer to both versatility and convenience in every way! The MMX series defines versatility by combining features like: Fast Scan, Alarm (audible/visual), and data logging, along with multi-mode for reading through and eliminating the thickness of painted or coated materials. The MMX demonstrates convenience by making all these features available to the user with just the touch of a button. Conveniently toggle between pulse-echo mode (detect flaws & pits), and echo-echo mode (eliminate paint & coating thickness), to cover all your inspection requirements. No need to remove or allow for errors due to paint and coatings. The MMX gauges use a highly damped dual element style transducer for both modes, eliminating the need to switch between transducer types. The MMX gauges are packaged in an all aluminum sealed case, making them rugged and resistant to the working environment—Dakota’s trademark. 5 Year Limited Warranty S O U N D S O L UT I O N S M M X S E R I E S T H I C K N E S S G AU G E S DAKOTA ULTRASONICS’ has succeeded in adding the final touches to the rugged MX line with the multi-mode MMX series. The MMX-6 and MMX-6DL have not only been combined with all the durability and features of the MX series gauges, but have also been equipped with the ability to measure through painted or coated materials and eliminate the thickness of the paint or coating. Our 5 year limited warranty indicates how we feel about the reliability and durability of the MMX Series.

When measuring materials such as casts, alloys, or plastics, the VX displays the speed of sound (velocity) through the material; thus giving an indication of its consistency. The VX gauge has 2 measuring modes: The Point-to-Point mode, which is simply placing the probe to the material and the gauge will display the velocity at that point. The Scan mode allows the operator to place the probe on the material and then move the probe along the surface; when the probe is lifted from the material, it will then display the fastest velocity the gauge found on the area covered. The VX is packaged in an all metal case, sealed with gaskets to protect them from harsh working environments. This gauge can go where you go, to do the work you do, saving you time and money, making fast accurate measurements.
