Facts

• Over 30% of Blade Maintenance Cost come from Surface defects

• 1/3 of the repairs needs to be repeated

• Visual Inspection Methods are the main Verification Techniques

• Ultrasounds or Eddy Current only provides thickness values of a single layer.

• Typically Highly trained staff is normally required.

• Blade OPEX is at 2.000€/MW.

• Multi-layer NDT measurement of:

o Thickness

o Adherence

o Bonding line defects (up to 10mm depending on the laminate)

• Non-destructive and non-contact

• Very quick – 30 secs/run

• Every layer in one shot

• Plant and field operation

• Non-flat surfaces (e.g. leading-edge)

• Metallic and non-metallic substrate

• It can be automated (example for Car Industry - (Irys)

• Wind | Ship | Aerospace Industries

Facts VALUE PROPOSITION

• Provide better insight on the Blade Quality

• 100% inspection

• More and better information

• Avoid Blade reparations in the field

• Use Cases:

• New blades manufacturing

• Operating Assets Verification

• Second hand market

• Wind farm ownership change 5

TERAHERTZ WAVES

• Co-developed with Fraunhofer Institute • Good spatial resolution (sub-mm) • Good penetration (~cm) • Time-domain (depth information)

Page 7: NOTUS - Home Das Nano - das-Nano€¦ · • Wind farm ownership change 5 . TERAHERTZ WAVES • Co-developed with Fraunhofer Institute • Good spatial resolution (sub-mm) • Good

• A terahertz pulse is sent to the sample in reflection

• Discontinuities in the index of refraction cause different reflections

• Reflections are separated in time due to the thickness of layers

• Analyzing the position and amplitude of the reflections provides information about thickness and type of layer

• A terahertz pulse is sent to the sample.

• The sample is scanned along the selected path.

• The ADI (Adherence Index) is derived

• Two interfaces are verified independently

• A Classifier Algorithm separates Pass or Failed

• Inmediate – Cheap – Non-trained

Contactless Adherence – A breakthrough in NDT

PULL-OFF TEST

• Destructive

• Slow (>24hours)

• Expensive

• Laboratory & Plant needed

• Only the weakest interface is tested

• Highly Trained personnel

• NOTUS system works for Complex Metallic substrates:

o Car Industry - (click for video)

o Wind Industry

• Offshore & Onshore support structures

• Components: transformers, gearboxes, generators

o Ship Building Industry

• It can be automated.

• Or work with the same pneumatic head.

• It can measure Wet Paintings

Thanks to Notus the defect extension is assesed and the

repair is extended to the damaged area and fields

problems avoided.
