CHORUS – COMPOSITES

CHORUS systems are widely used for inspecting carbon composites in aerospace manufacturing using Ultrasonic Testing (PE, TTU, PAUT, LUT), Digital Radiography (DR), Thermography, and Shearography. The integrated NDT-WEB ROUTINE software covers the full inspection processes required to manage the inspection.

‍

Large Component Cells

• The part is introduced in the inspection cell, which incorporates the tooling to hold the part in place.
• The robotic cell design is tailored to match the scale and complexity of the product/s inspected.
• Multi-axis motion for complex geometries and hard-to-reach areas.
• Standard configurations include single or multi-robotic scanning of large or fixed components. Typical constructions include:
  • Single Robot (6-axis). Water-column UT/PAUT, Immersion Tank, and TTU with a yoke.
  • Dual or Triple Robot (6-axix * 2). Water-column UT/PAUT, Immersion Tank, dual robot TTU. Inspecting shared or separate areas simultaneously.

Small Component Cells

• Used for the inspection of thermoplastic or carbon-fiber reinforced clips used in airframe assembly to secure structural components.
• Composite clips can have hundreds of small variations that require unique manipulation and inspection strategies.
• The cells incorporate automated part handling, positioning, and scanning with customized part nests and tool changers.
• Proprietary technique permits modifying the robot path based on scanning results to accommodate manufacturing variabilities.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
