Nondestructive inspection of critical components and systems used in aerospace structure requires that the inspection system provide consistent scanning capability to determine structural integrity in a timely and cost-effective manner. The scanning system may be single-ended as in pulse echo ultrasonics or eddy currents, or double-ended as in through transmission ultrasonics or x-ray applications. Scanning systems developed for automated nondestructive inspection of large structures are usually designed specifically for that application, can be expensive, and have no built-in flexibility for scanning other structure types. There is a need for general purpose scanning systems which use the industrial robots as a rogrammable scanning device.
