Description

The laser scanning and flaw detection bench ROBOSCOPE VTM-5000 COMPOSITE is designed for the non-destructive testing of polymer-composite materials used in aircraft constructions: glider elements, helicopter blades, honeycomb panels. It is also applicable in wind power engineering, small-sized shipbuilding, pipe fitting production, etc. All tooling (laser scanner, sensors) selection and change processes are automated.

The selection of test techniques and probes is programmed at the initialization stage. All NDT methods are simultaneously available. The specification of scan areas, movement paths and test speed is performed by the CAD application Method Designer. For composite panels, sensitivity adjustment is done layer-by-layer with regard to the physical properties of the material (attenuation). During impedance testing, the optimal spectrum of probing signal is automatically selected for each material during system initialization.

The scalability of ROBOSCOPE VTM-5000 COMPOSITE allows testing parts of various shapes and sizes; the criteria of required mechanization are individually specified at the design stage. Using one robotic test bench for the whole inspection cycle reduces operation time and delivers a high-accuracy flaw chart by applying all programmed inspection methods.
