#ndt On 23 March 2017, over 60 delegates, comprising designers, manufacturers, materials experts and regulators from the automotive industry and non-destructive testing (NDT) community, gathered to participate in a workshop on NDT requirements for automotive composites, held at The Manufacturing Technology Centre, Coventry, UK. The workshop was the brainchild of Professor Robert Smith, immediate Past President [...]
#ndt An ultrasonic phased array system is described for online inspections of welds or condition monitoring of parent material at elevated temperatures of up to 350oC. Wedges are built from plastics resistant to high temperature degradation, and equipped with a cooling jacket around the array. A model of the ultrasonic beam skew pattern due to thermal [...]
#ndt The creation of Saarland's first public research institute will be celebrated for the 45th time in March 2017. Although established long ago, Fraunhofer IZFP has remained young and modern, which can be seen in a new strategic alignment that is shifting the institute's focus from traditional nondestructive testing services to leading-edge self-learning sensor and monitoring [...]
#ndt Despite the German phase-out from nuclear power, this technology still plays a major role in Europe. Due to this fact, it is all the more important for Germany to be able to assess the condition of international nuclear power plants. In a nuclear power plant (NPP) an average of 25,000 cables with a total length [...]
