The AMS-71 mobile blade array scanner is an innovative, revolutionary, multi-channel sensor array, capable of covering the whole inspection area in one stroke. The array contains 24-32 individual line scan channels that records the structural information simultaneously. The inspection speed is one of the highest in the industry, which is often a requirement with contemporary multi-MW rotor blades. The system accommodates vertically oriented rotor blades.
The current trend in the blade inspection industry is to carry out quality inspection on rotor blades in vertical orientation. FORCE Technology’s latest vertical blade array scanner is well-suited for automated ultrasonic NDT blade inspection. This autonomous scanner provides high-resolution multiple line scan data over the whole bonded spar at high speed, making the entire inspection process efficient and accurate.
The system contains a single oeprator feature that has already been commercialised on the market.
