Unspection of corrosion damage to underground and building piping systems is required to make repair decisions. It is difficult to inspect and diagnose the outside of underground piping because the pipe is usually enclosed in casing or insulation. Emphasis of this research is on internal inspection and corrosion status assessment of gas, under, and steam pipes. Prototype designs of the robotic corrosion inspection crawler were investigated based on kinematic principles. The crawler is designed to negotiate right-angle turns and carry optical video and corrosion inspection probes. The crawler travels inside small-diameter pipes and automatically produces a permanent record of the corrosion status for further analysis and decision making. This article summarizes prototype designs and laboratory testing of the robotic corrosion inspection crawler system.
