Aircraft around the globe are repeatedly subjected to drastic temperature changes, which cause condensation and humidity to collect on the inside of the aluminum skin. This humid environment between layers leads to hidden corrosion that must be detected and repaired during regular in-service inspections.
As a part of its series of aerospace solutions, Olympus proposes an innovative fastener and subsurface corrosion inspection technique, which propels eddy current technology into previously uncharted territory. This new technology detects, sizes, and evaluates the depth of corrosion between the aluminum layers of commercial and military aircraft, providing efficient and reliable results.
In this particular example, corrosion detection gives these values: PINK= 40% corrosion depth RED= 30% corrosion depth YELLOW= 20% corrosion depth BLUE= 10% corrosion depth |
