⚠️ Defects in composite materials may be invisible, but the impact on safety is not. ▫️ The unique structure of composite materials, sometimes anisotropic, results in specific defects potentially generated during production or operation, which should be detected on time to assure their integrity in safety-critical applications. ▫️ Those defects include delamination, porosity, fiber misalignment, wrinkle, moisture ingress, and multilayer disbond. ▫️ Ultrasonic Testing (UT) is one of the main NDT methods used for this purpose, and TPAC provides a set of top-notch technologies and solutions for composite inspection. 🤝 TPAC is already partnering with Airbus Atlantic, Pôle EMC2, ALBATROS Gie, and Coriolis Composites to meet the most demanding requirements in composite inspection, including those related to high-attenuative materials (as thick honeycomb-CFRP sandwich-structures), dry inspections (using air-coupled UT), and complex shapes.
