NDTS and is
proud to deliver the 50th FlawInspecta Ultrasonic Array to Boeing (Oct 2006)
NDT
Solutions Inc. announced it recently delivered the 50th FlawInspecta
Ultrasonic Array System to The Boeing Company. These Ultrasonic Phased
Arrays systems are being used in various areas within The Boeing
Company, including the 787 program. The FlawInspecta hardware is coupled
to the MAUS V (Mobile Automated Scanner) and the AUSS XVII Inspection
Systems. The FlawInspecta provides a low cost ultrasonic array solution
to many inspection problems. Boeing reports that inspection speeds times
can be reduced by a factor of 10 to 40 times by using the FlawInspecta
coupled to their large area scanners.

technology organization.
Diagnostic
Sonar Ltd selects NDT Solutions, Inc. (NDTS) to represent and distribute
their ultrasonic array systems and engineering services in North and South
America. (Oct 2003)
NDTS
and Diagnostic
Sonar, Ltd have formed a strategic partnership to represent and
distribute Diagnostic Sonar’s Ultrasonic array systems and engineering
services in North and South America. Diagnostic Sonar produces the
ultrasonic array, A, B, and C-scan system. Diagnostic Sonar has granted
NDTS the exclusive rights to market and service this equipment in North
and South America. The
system is truly a breakthrough for Diagnostic Sonar, building on the
success of their real-time B-scan systems.
interfaces with a family of arrays and multiplexers that have been
designed for rapid, low cost ultrasonic inspection. The
is capable of C-scanning with full waveform capture faster than 10
inches/second at a 0.040-inch resolution using a 128-element array,
approximately 5 inches wide.
Diagnostic Sonar, Ltd is a United Kingdom based company that has developed
high performance transducers and instruments including Flaw Detectors,
Thickness Gauges and Real Time Flaw Imaging systems.
NDTS awarded
Air Force Research Laboratory contract
The
Air Force Research Laboratory Materials and Manufacturing Directorate (AFRL/ML)
has awarded NDTS a multi-year contract to develop and adapt the
transient eddy current technology into several of the Air Forces existing
automated C-scan systems.
The
transient eddy current technology was developed by QinetiQ.
is an
advanced transient eddy-current scanning system using probes containing
Hall sensors. The system now has recognized potential for the detection of
deep corrosion and cracks in aging aircraft structure. There are
significant benefits to be realized from the use of transient
eddy-currents in terms of reduced inspection time and ease of acquisition
and analysis of the data. Large areas of structure incorporating multiple
variations in thickness can be scanned without the need for any probe or
set-up changes.
