Webinar: High-resolution non-contact NDT with terahertz technology

By Ben Sampson19th July 20211 Min Read

Non-destructive testing (NDT) systems based on terahertz technology are emerging as invaluable tools for a wide range of aerospace applications. With very high resolution and safe, non-contact operation, terahertz technology is being used to inspect and analyze non-conducting materials in applications where traditional NDT methods, such as ultrasound, microwave and X-ray, struggle.

For example, terahertz imaging can be used to measure coating thickness with very high precision, density and uniformity of an adhesive foam, delamination, and detailed imaging of multi-layer structures.

This webinar provides an overview of terahertz technologies for NDT applications, a comparison with different inspection technologies and examples of deploying terahertz-based NDT solutions in aerospace applications.
