Non-destructive inspection with a drone: "UT inspection payload for ELIOS 3"
ELIOS 3 UT Inspection Payload
Non-destructive testing (UT inspection | ultrasonic thickness measurement) is possible with drones.
The UT inspection payload is a device developed in collaboration with Cygnus Instruments, a world-leading manufacturer of ultrasonic thickness gauges, by Flyability, the company that developed the "ELIOS 3," a drone capable of flying safely in indoor spaces. By using the ELIOS 3 equipped with the UT inspection payload, ultrasonic thickness measurements can be conducted remotely, safely, efficiently, and at low cost in inspection areas that traditionally required scaffolding or special equipment, such as plant facilities, infrastructure facilities (road bridges, tunnels, sewers, etc.), automotive and aircraft factories, and shipyards.

basic information
【Drone】 Size: Height 38cm, Width/Depth 48cm Flight Time: 7 minutes 40 seconds 【Ultrasonic Thickness Measurement】 Measurement Range: 0.8 to 250mm Measurement Accuracy: ±0.1mm 【Main Features】 - Modular Probe Head The probe can be selected from 2MHz, 5MHz, or 7.5MHz and can be exchanged according to the inspection target. - Probe Arm Even if it hits a wall, it folds back towards the main body and does not hinder flight. - Couplant Dispenser If the couplant runs low during flight, it can be supplied from the dispenser. - Cleaning Module The probe head can be replaced with a cleaning module to clean the target. - Real-time A-Scan Display A-Scan can be displayed in real-time on the control app "Cockpit." - Location Identification of Measurement Results The location where thickness measurements were taken is displayed on a 3D model within the analysis software "Inspector," allowing for location identification during inspections.

Applications/Examples of results
In vessels where periodic inspections every five years are mandatory, when measuring the thickness of ballast tanks on large ships that require scaffolding, the introduction of UT inspection payloads has eliminated the need for scaffolding installation, resulting in a reduction of 15,000 hours of work.
Detailed information
-
It is possible to measure the thickness of the target by making contact with the UT inspection part (probe) extending from the drone.
-
The UT inspection part can be installed not only on the front of the drone but also on the top and bottom, allowing for inspections of piping on ceilings and floors as well.
-
If rust, iron powder, or other substances are attached to the surface and measurement becomes difficult, you can replace it with a cleaning module to clean the target.
