Industrial CT Scanning Complex Electronics like Relays

INDUSTRIAL CT SCANNING COMPLEX ELECTRONICS

Aviation Relays are used in power distribution systems to control the flow of electrical power to different components and subsystems. Aircraft control systems, such as those for flight control surfaces, landing gear, brakes, and anti-ice systems, often rely on relays to activate and deactivate various functions.

The proper manufacturing of intricate components like these is paramount for the function of each related system it controls. Broken or pinched wires, shorts caused by FOD, and weld quality are all conditions that can be evaluated using Industrial CT Imaging.

Micro CT scanning offers the ability to render into 3D small geometries like copper windings to look for wire breaks, tang alignments, micro welds, and other geometries. Sometimes, areas of interest are only accessible using 3D characterization via CT scanning because the inspected surfaces are behind high density materials that cannot be adjusted adequately from just a 2D X-Ray perspective.
