Robotic inspection methods
Advanced ultrasonic inspection robots collect data to understand the current condition of critical infrastructure, promoting safety, reducing downtime and opportunity cost, increasing efficiency, and providing high-quality point-level data. Rapid Ultrasonic Gridding (RUG) is a robot-enabled ultrasonic and visual inspection technique that produce 2D & 3D thickness grid maps to identify areas where corrosion, erosion, and other damage mechanisms have caused wall-thinning. RUG is highly versatile and can be applied to a wide range of ferromagnetic fixed equipment, including boilers, tanks, pressure vessels, piping, and more.
