Baugh &Weedon partner Tecnitest successfully completes installation of automated UT part inspection system at CERN

摘要

Tecnitest Ingenieros SL has successfully completed the development and installation of an automatic ultrasonic (UT) part inspection system for the non-destructive testing (NDT) service at CERN's Group for Mechanical and Materials Engineering. The system has been tailored to the customer's needs to allow quality verifications to be performed for construction elements used by CERN, with state-of-the-art materials and a range of different sizes and geometries. In January 2020, Tecnitest Ingenieros SL was awarded this ambitious project after presenting the most competitive technical and economic proposal in the public tender held. The system consists of a water immersion tank in which differentiated inspection environments have been created that make use of the different technologies and methods used in ultrasoundbased industrial inspection.
