⚠️ 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.

1wHow it will work for weld overlay machined surface, inspecting 3.0 mm clad, and inspection shall be from weld overlay machined surface only. As you are aware that weld overlay are getting cladded on LTCS/CS material however at ends, some time we have to perform DRT/RT for volumetric flaws. So is this detect 1.0 mm volumetric flaw along with dis-bondment ?
