THE IMPORTANCE OF NDT IN THE AEROSPACE/AERONAUTICS INDUSTRY

Aerospace and aeronautics are innovative and technological industrial sectors that have experienced remarkable growth in recent years.

Aircraft are subject to the most stringent safety regulations, making regular maintenance both essential and mandatory.

CMS Eddy Current and Ultrasonic testing systems are developed using state-of-the-art technology to inspect various aircraft components such as turbine blades, needles, engine parts, wheels, brakes, formed parts, forged parts, and bearings.

With our specially designed sensors, designed to be connected to our measuring instruments, we provide outstanding inspection quality, even for the most complex parts.

Our reliable inspection systems ensure flight safety and optimal component performance while maintaining compliance with regulatory standards. Additionally, they contribute to cost reduction by extending the service life of critical parts.

CMS EXPERTISE

Defects detection: surface, subsurface, internal, external, transverse, longitudinal, oblique defects, holes, cracks, corrosion…
Material sorting, mix grades…
Checking heat treatment and hardness
Conductivity measurement
Dimensional and thickness measurements
Tube weld inspection
And much more…

Combined Eddy Current and Ultrasonic inspection is also possible for more complete control.

CERTIFIED INSPECTION SYSTEMS

All our Ultrasonic and Eddy Current systems comply with the latest European and international standards, including ASTM, ASNT, DIN, ISO, SAE, EN, AMS and more.

Our dedicated teams are available to collaborate on your project, working with you to develop an efficient, customized solution that addresses your specific needs and constraints.

MAIN ADVANTAGES

State-of-the-art inspection NDT systems: CMS systems are fully customizable to suit the specific product being inspected, as well as your detection requirements and constraints. Compact and precise, they can inspect products from high-tech industries.
Early Defects Detection: CMS systems help identify cracks, porosities, inclusions, or other internal or surface defects with high sensitivity at early stages of production to increase equipment reliability.
Preservation of Material Integrity: CMS NDT systems allow the inspection of aeronautics/aerospace components without altering them, meaning they can continue to be used after testing.
Enhanced Security: By identifying weaknesses in aeronautics/aerospace structures or equipment, NDT reduces the risk of accidents or catastrophic failures, especially in critical industries to increase equipment reliability.
Production quality control and certification: CMS systems ensure parts comply with strict industry standards and better management of industrial risks.
Real Time Inspection: Thanks to our high-performance CMS software, inspection results are displayed in real-time ensuring continuous quality control.
Precise defect analysis and traceability: Comprehensive inspection reports with complete traceability tracking are created at the end of the control.
