Résumé : |
Achieving high-speed inspection rates for complex composite parts requires versatile, integrated systems that meet the challenges of automated part handling and non-destructive testing (NDT) for ship sets that can include hundreds of different parts. This paper presents cost-effective integrated solutions that are being successfully used to inspect composite parts for fully-automated aerospace applications. The most appropriate solution for a given ship set depends on factors that include detection and sizing requirements, the range of part sizes and geometries, the required inspection speed and cost constraints. The challenges of optimizing different technologies and integrating them into a single system are described for a recently implement industrial solution. Lessons learned from the project are presenred both on terms of technology integration and implementation of a new ultrasonic software algorithm. |
