摘要： Method and apparatus for enabling ultrasonic inspection of a changing, insufficiently defined or unknown shape (e.g., a variable radius or a noncircular radius caused by the use of soft tooling) at a rate that meets production requirements. The apparatus comprises a linear ultrasonic array (i.e., sensor) incorporated in a toppler, which in turn is slidably supported by an oscillating sensor mechanism carried by a traveling trailer vehicle. As a result of this arrangement, the sensor can undergo a back-and-forth sweeping motion coupled with motion along the spar radius. The sensor is further able to displace radially relative to a sweep pivot axis and rotate (hereinafter “topple”) about a topple pivot axis. In this manner, the orientation of the sensor can adjust to the contour of the inspected surface as the sensor scans.

摘要： A system for inspecting a test article incorporates a diagnostic imaging system for a test article. A command controller receives two dimensional (2D) images from the diagnostic imaging system. A three dimensional (3D) computer aided design (CAD) model visualization system and an alignment system for determining local 3D coordinates are connected to the command controller. Computer software modules incorporated in the command controller are employed, in aligning, the 2D images and 3D CAD model responsive to the local 3D coordinates. The 2D images and 3D CAD model are displayed with reciprocal registration. The alignment system is then directed to selected coordinates in the 2D images or 3D CAD model.

摘要： An ultrasonic data analysis and display system for use with ultrasonic test apparatus. The ultrasonic analysis and display system includes a display that is divided into six different display formats, including a pulse echo, a time of flight display, an A-Scan, a horizontal and vertical B-Scan, and a control display. Each of the displays gives a different view of the ultrasonic test data obtained from a test part. When a portion of the ultrasonic data in any of the display formats is selected, the other display formats are automatically updated to reflect the operator's selections. The format of the displayed data can be changed to a half-wave positive, a half-wave negative, or a full-wave rectification. Distances within any of the display formats can be measured by selecting two data points. Also, different color palettes for displaying the ultrasonic data can be selected, and portions of the ultrasonic data displayed in the pulse echo or time of flight displays can be enlarged by zooming in on a selected portion.

摘要： A system and method that allow inspection of hollow structures made of composite material, such as an integrally stiffened wing box of an aircraft. A wing box comprises top and bottom skins connected by a plurality of spaced spars. The system employs a plurality of scanners for inspecting different portions of each spar. The system uses dynamically controlled magnetic coupling to connect an external drive tractor to computer-controlled scanners that carry respective sensors, e.g., linear ultrasonic transducer arrays. A system operator can control the various components by means of a graphical user interface comprising multiple interaction regions that represent the individual scanner motion paths and are associated with respective motion script files.
