Hexagon Digital Wave to deliver Ultrasonic Examination machine for Aerospace industry
Hexagon Digital Wave, a business of Hexagon Composites signed a contract with a
US based Type 3 composite cylinder manufacturer to supply Ultrasonic Examination
(UE) equipment for its cylinders intended for the aerospace industry. The UE
equipment will enable the testing of the interior metallic liners for structural
integrity and manufacturing flaws prior to completing the composite overwrap.
Driving energy transformation
"We feel privileged to deliver our first aerospace UE installation and have our
equipment chosen for such a technically advanced industry," says Keith Fountain,
UE International Sales Manager. "The non-destructive testing attributes play a
vital role in the design to ensure operational flight safety".
About the market
UE uses advanced electronics and sensors that assess the structural integrity of
high-pressure metallic cylinders for overall safety. UE has been the market
leader in periodic testing for high-pressure seamless metallic cylinders for 15
years and allows customers to test their cylinders without venting the gaseous
contents. This has a number of positive impacts to both the environment and
business that we service.
Timing
The UE machine will be delivered in the second quarter of 2021.
