Tecnatom has developed the new RABIT 2.0 robot-operated system for aerospace applications. This is an automatic system based on two robots capable of working independently or in tandem.
This new system incorporates a new generation of greater span robots capable of inspecting complex geometries and of incorporating heavier utensil modules when the automatic module exchanger is used.
In addition to the linear track-mounted robots and their associated electronics, the system incorporates a new automatic module exchanger with independent pedestals, a water recirculation system, the operations post, the InspectView UT software for the performance of inspections and the Gentray3 trajectories generator, the last two both developed by Tecnatom.
The system is capable of performing conventional transmission and pulse-eco UT inspections, as well as phased-array pulse-echo contact inspections. In addition, the system can incorporate a rotary table for the inspection of rotating parts, and the Falcom3D laser system may also be coupled to it for laser scanning of the part to be inspected in order to make a 3D reconstruction of it and determine inspection trajectories with great accuracy.
With this breakthrough technology, Tecnatom continues to be the international reference for the supply of robot-operated systems for the inspection of composite materials in the aerospace sector, where the most relevant clients at international level already have inspection systems developed by Tecnatom in their factories.
