DroneMAT
Advanced Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge for Industrial UAVs
No surface preparation or couplant
Robust thickness measurements
Lightweight Compact & Modular
No force required from UAV to take measurements
Overview
DroneMAT is a electromagnetic acoustic transducer (EMAT) ultrasonic thickness (UT) gauge designed for industrial UAVs (Drones). It allows users to perform ultrasonic thickness inspections from drones in a more efficient, reliable and safer way. The modular and lightweight design allows conversion of any industrial drone to an aerial UT gauge, increasing the range of applications and utilization.
-
Decrease cost of inspection vs the conventional way by increasing inspection speed and elimination of auxiliary equipment
-
Eliminate working at height by inspectors and reduce potential risks
-
Modular design allowing integration to any industrial drone (total payload < 700 gr)
-
Allows inspection on any metal surface - coated, unbonded paint or corroded
-
Independent sensor aligning to measurement surface
-
No contact required to perform measurements - gap up to 3 mm / misalignment (angle) 25 degrees
-
Measurement immune to drone noise
-
User friendly App with easy data management (including A-Scan and Inspection details)
