Robotic CT Pushes Boundaries for Inspecting Complex Composite Structures

A new generation of robotic inspection systems is emerging to overcome these challenges. At the Advanced Inspection, Methods and Materials (AIMM) Center in Ogden, Utah, Omni NDE has upgraded its robotic computed tomography (CT) platform, demonstrating how robotic scanning, high-resolution detectors and advanced software can expand the possibilities for non-destructive evaluation (NDE) of composite and hybrid structures.

GiantEye Project Aims to Transform Large-Scale Industrial CT Inspection

The ability to look inside complex components without cutting them open or dismantling them lies at the heart of nondestructive testing (NDT). However, traditional industrial computed tomography (CT) systems are constrained by the size of the objects they can accommodate. Components must fit inside the scanner, limiting the application of CT for large assemblies such as full vehicles, aircraft structures, or large energy systems.

Benchtop Automated Inspection Systems Lowers Barriers to AI in Manufacturing

Artificial intelligence is increasingly reshaping quality control in manufacturing, but many companies, particularly small and mid-sized firms, still face significant barriers when it comes to adopting AI-driven inspection technologies. High system costs, complex integration requirements, and the need for specialist programming skills have often limited the practical implementation of automated vision systems on the factory floor.
