NDT Research & Development Success Projects

ACTIVAL Project
ACTIVAL Project
Towards a more sustainable and competitive aviation by means of new active protection technologies for aluminum components and NDT-based monitoring and inspection solutions.
LEarn More
AUTOBOLT Project
AUTOBOLT Project
AUTOmated load-measuring BOLT tightening tool. AUTOBOLT prevents cumbersome and heavy tool handling and allows for 10% accurate pre-tension. After an ultrasonic measurement, AUTOBOLT knows which specific bolt requires re-tightened.

AUTOSPOT Project
AUTOSPOT Project
World first automated and contactless laser acoustics spot weld in-line inspection system. Its main goal is to develop a novel, non-destructive, and automated ultrasonic inspection system, for in-line detection and characterization of spot weld defects.
LEarn More
STEELAR Project
STEELAR Project
Steel components assessment using a novel non-destructive residual stress ultrasonic technology. Develops an innovative NDT technology able to assess residual stress levels in rolled products and rolling rolls, providing a decision-aiding tool that allow operators to optimize manufacturing processes.

BOLT-IN Project
BOLT-IN Project
Bolt-load in-service inspection and monitoring through novel NDT technologies. The goal of BOLT-IN is to determine the technical and commercial feasibility of a new bolt load measurement technique in the Australian market.
LEarn More
LOPEMAT Project
LOPEMAT Project
Development of low-power EMAT instrumentation for in-service corrosion inspection and monitoring in high temperature assets. Through the LOPEMAT project, Innerspec aims to develop and validate the first prototype of a of low-power EMAT system for normal beam and guided wave generation.
LEarn More
CORUS Project
CORUS Project
Corrosion prediction and detection by ultrasonic testing in metallic tanks and piping filled with chemicals. Trough the CORUS project, Innerspec Technologies has developed a reliable method and the necessary tools for the detection, quantification and forecasting of wall-loss and corrosion in tank bottom floors and pipeline segment containing chemical products, without the need to empty the contents or decommission said assets.

SPMRail Project
SPMRail Project
Portable Residual Stress Measurement of Rail Wheels. Innerspec Technologies has developed the first, portable, battery-operated handheld instrument that can be used to provide rail-side inspections and facilitate operation in any environment. The instrument is coupled with a proprietary, patent-pending, dual-channel sensor that does not need to be rotated during inspection thus simplifying the operation, increasing the reliability and accuracy of results, and reducing complexity and inspection cycle time.
