Advanced Composite Inspection

A complete picture of a large component can be produced by stitching C-scans together in the UTmap software.

The RSflite (linear scanning only) and Veo3 phased array instruments, along with WheelProbe 2 and UTmap software, have been entirely designed and optimised for the needs in various industries, including aerospace, composite and automotive sectors.  These complete package options helps to qualify new composites at the design stage as well as detect reflective defects during manufacturing or after impacts. The portable and battery-operated kit allows for the detection and precise sizing of delamination’s, disbonding and porosities in materials. This solution is equally efficient for manufacturing or maintenance.

Frequency recommendations according to the thickness (T):

1 mm < T < 10 mm = 10 MHz

2.5 mm < T < 25 mm = 5 MHz

T > 25 mm = 2.25 MHz

The 10 MHz WheelProbe 2 is the perfect solution for high-precision inspections.
