MALÅ CX Concrete Imaging System

The MALÅ CX Concrete Imaging System allows you to scan concrete structure simply and safely and present data clearly for real-time and in-the-box data acquisition, display and analysis.


The MALÅ CX System allows accurate inspection of concrete structure such as floors, walls, balconies, bridge decks etc. and the detection of metallic and non metallic objects and features within, i.e. rebar, post tension cables, metallic/ non-metallic conduits and pipes, voids and the measurement of slab thickness.

The software for the MALÅ CX System is available with three different measurement modes; 2D, 3D Grid and Object Mapper- projects, all for different aims, which all together make the flexibility of the system and to a very low cost. The extremely user-friendly software with its simple interface is easily operated by either the popular push-and-turn knob, or by the full remote capabilities with the buttons on the antenna. 

Applications include:

  • Cutting
  • Coring
  • Drilling
  • Inspection and
  • Quality Control

The MALÅ CX System comes as standard in a CX Shipping Case, but can also be used in conjunction with an optional PC/Monitor holder for greater portability and flexibility of use, depending on the application and user requirements.

The MALÅ CX System fully supports the MALÅ High Frequency (HF) Antennas allowing the user to choose the best antenna for their given application and obtain unsurpassed accuracy and data clarity.

Antennas »

1.2 GHz with EM
1.2 GHz with EM The 1.2 GHz with EM antenna is a high resolution antenna used for high quality radar measurements, with the deepest penetration in the HF range. It is commonly used for concrete, reinforcement studies and for road mapping and quality assurance.
1.6 GHz with EM
1.6 GHz with EM The 1.6 GHz with EM antenna is a high resolution antenna used for high quality radar measurements, with medium penetration in the HF range. It is commonly used for concrete, reinforcement studies and for road mapping and quality assurance.
1.6 GHz
1.6 GHz The 1.6 GHz antenna is a high resolution antenna used for high quality radar measurements, with medium penetration in the HF range. It is commonly used for concrete, reinforcement studies and for road mapping and quality assurance.
1.2 GHz
1.2 GHz The 1.2 GHz antenna is a high resolution antenna used for high quality radar measurements, with the deepest penetration in the HF range. It is commonly used for concrete, reinforcement studies and for road mapping and quality assurance.
2.3 GHz
2.3 GHz The 2.3 GHz antenna is a high resolution antenna used for the high quality radar measurements; it offers the highest resolution for shallow investigations in the HF range. It is commonly used for concrete, reinforcement studies and for road mapping and quality assurance.
