UT inspection of engine run hardware or in-service parts, in particular the 2-6 and 3-9 stage engine spools, present different complexities to those found in the UT of engine components. These complexities arise from part geometry, surface condition and the UT operator to visualize the area being tested. ScanMaster has created a sophisticated yet user-friendly solution consisting of innovations in hardware and software for this application. The inspection is performed in a large immersion tank with high precision system mechanics. Specially developed mechanical devices are used to access the web areas and to permit scanning at various angles. Advanced software tools are used for part programming, scan supervision and data analysis. A 3D display of the robot and part, which can be displayed in sections, rotated and zoomed, allows for predicting future robot position.
