By conducting the inspections using sUAS, Sutro Group achieved remarkable savings and operational efficiency:
Utilising advanced ultrasonic testing technology ensures accurate measurements and reliable results.
The non-destructive nature of UT allows for thorough inspections without causing any damage.
Seamless restoration ensures the structural integrity of the equipment is maintained or improved.
Project overview
The project involved performing UT Thickness Inspections on an industrial stack to detect inconsistencies or weaknesses. This required careful preparation, detailed analysis, and seamless restoration to ensure the equipment’s continued safe and efficient operation.
Challenges
- Accessing inspection areas: Cutting precise inspection holes while maintaining the structural integrity of the stack.
- Accurate measurements: Ensuring the UT technology provided precise and reliable thickness measurements.
- Seamless restoration: Restoring the stack to its original or better condition post-inspection.
Innovative Approach
Careful preparation
The project began with meticulous preparation, including cutting inspection holes into the stack. This step was crucial for accessing necessary areas for measurement while ensuring the structural integrity was preserved.
Detailed analysis
Next, our team conducted in-depth UT checks using the latest ultrasonic testing technology. This non-destructive technique allowed us to measure the stack’s thickness accurately, identifying any potential areas of concern without causing damage.
Seamless restoration
Following the detailed analysis, we sealed the inspection holes with durable plating. This was performed with utmost attention to detail, ensuring the stack’s structural integrity was maintained or enhanced.
Conclusion
The successful completion of this UT Thickness Stack Inspection project demonstrates Sutro Group’s commitment to excellence. Our meticulous preparation, detailed analysis, and seamless restoration processes reflect our dedication to maintaining industrial equipment’s long-term performance and safety.
