Contractors can now take their scanning to a new level


The Hilti X-Scan system PS 1000 used in conjunction with the new PROFIS PS 1000 Premium software takes nondestructive inspection of concrete and as-built checks into a new era.  The premium package makes it simple and reliable to find and mark drilling, coring or sawing locations, thus helping avoid costly damage and lost time due to hitting rebar, pipes or cables.

The Hilti X-Scan system PS 1000 system has been upgraded to see deeper than ever before with a new “expert” mode which detects embedded objects at depths up to 18” depending on permittivity of concrete.   Adding the Hilti PSA Jobsite monitor makes the display of live electrical cables and true diameter drill hole markers possible.

Additionally, the PROFIS PS 1000 Premium software package offers many export functions to analyze the data in additional programs such as AutoCAD.  These upgrades allow users to overlay scan data from three different sensors and view the information in a single output; making it possible to view from one document information gathered from a Hilti Ferroscan which reveals ferrous objects,  rebar diameter and depth of cover information, and X-Scan which reveals various objects  for identification and classification of rebar; display of rebar diameter; accurate depth of cover information gathered; and, identification of live electrical cables in conduit.

The PROFIS PS 1000 Premium package is a powerful tool for “as built” checks and allows the user to label and scan positions and drill hole markers with building coordinates for accurate scan placement in design files, whether on-site or off.  Plus, users can export scan data in various design formats like “DXF”, “COLLADA”, and “X3D”, making the data available for popular design programs such as AutoCad, Trimble SketchUp, Hilti PROFIS Anchors and more.

This compact all-in-one hand-held scanner offers easy, user-friendly operation, quick start-up for speed of use, plus unmatched data visualization.  With a durable, rubber coated housing for jobsite protection it is also water and dust resistant in typical jobsite conditions.

The Hilti X-Scan system PS 1000 is covered by Hilti’s Calibration Service to help ensure reliability and accuracy.  Even with Hilti’s built-in protection features, precision instruments can be affected by everyday use and more. Through the Calibration Service, the X-Scan will be calibrated once a year with the calibration confirmed in writing. The X-Scan PS 1000 is also covered by Hilti’s Lifetime Service, a unique service agreement that includes two years of no-cost coverage*.
