o Utilizing & Development new NDT methods (continued)
• Next Generation of Remote Visual Equipment (for borescope
inspections); goals for near future:
1. Increasing Efficiency
2. Cost reduction
3. Accuracy of inspection
1. Efficiency: Automation, use of robots
for repetitive inspections, Robot controlled,
Remote Inspection
2. Costs: Innovation; using cheaper imaging techniques while
increasing image quality
3. Accuracy: 3D image overlay, defect recognition by artificial
intelligence, monitoring wear and predicting condition

▪ Cost reduction:
o Environmental friendly materials (PT, MT)
▪ Effective Information:
o Visualization of Inspection results
o Remote Inspection
o Big Data & Artificial Intelligence
Monitoring, Prediction, Reporting
Sharing results
▪ Training:
o Online training and examination
o Virtual Reality training

▪ Challenges:
o Automated Inspection
o Fast Inspection Methods and Techniques
o Usable on composite materials (including ceramic)
o Data Handling (Recording, Analysis and Evaluation, Accessibility)
o Remote Inspection
o Dedicated Personnel Training,
Qualification and Certification

▪ Automation Challenges for MRO NDT:
o Position and Orientation Sensor/Inspection System relative to
inspection surface
o Accurate location information of the data (results)
o Covering complex curved surfaces
o Smart movement
Source: LCR Systems
▪ NDT Inspection utilizing automated
inspection systems results in a
fast amount of Data
o A “platform” is needed for recording data,
to enable smart analysis and evaluation
of the data (combined with CAD information)
o Report generation
o Big Data approach to some extend
(Volume, Velocity, Varity and Veracity))
o Prediction of component condition
o Ownership
o Availability
o Configuration (arrangement) of all data
o Personnel responsibilities
▪ Predix Presentation Source: www.gemeasurement.com
▪ The legacy NDT systems rely mostly on evaluation on site by
well qualified personnel.
▪ When using the Automated Systems with more recent NDT
Techniques, the inspection data is digitally available and
can be send to specialists throughout the world using
internet, This increases speed of inspection and can
contribute to the consistency of the inspections.

▪ By further development and innovation of our Aerospace
NDT for MRO we assure our position on the global market
for the longer term.
▪ Future Aerospace MRO requires a more global approach
through (international) cooperation
Thank you for your attention.
