  • System for non-destructive inspection of structural components
    Patent number: 10018600
    Abstract: A system for non-destructive inspection of structural components comprising an ultrasonic probe having a contact face for contacting a surface of a structural component to be inspected and being adapted to emit ultrasonic energy into the structural component when the contact face abuts on a surface of the structural component, a thermal imaging camera adapted to inspect a portion of a surface of the structural component to detect region of the surface of the structural component where an increase of the temperature occurs, and a control unit connected to the ultrasonic probe and the thermal imaging camera. The contact face extends in a plane and is provided with at least two bars which are arranged in parallel and have a common separation distance from each other.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 4, 2016
    Date of Patent: July 10, 2018
    Assignee: AIRBUS OPERATIONS GMBH
    Inventors: Wolfgang Bisle, Dieter Scherling, Frederic Bock, Markus Rahammer, Igor Solodov
