Laser shearography (Q-800)

Product catalog summary

Overview
The Laser Shearography System Q-800 is a portable, compact, and non-destructive inspection tool designed for full-field analysis of various materials, particularly complex composites like fiber-reinforced plastics and honeycomb structures. It is highly effective for detecting defects such as delaminations, debondings, cracks, voids, and impact damages.

Inspection Capabilities
The Q-800 system provides rapid inspection results, typically within 10 to 30 seconds per image, with minimal preparation. It is approved by leading aircraft manufacturers for production and maintenance applications.

Measurement Principle
The system operates on a deformation and strain measurement principle, using minimal loads to ensure non-destructive testing. Various loading systems, such as vacuum, pressure, heating, and vibration, can be employed.

System Components
The Q-800 includes a miniaturized shearography sensor with a high-resolution CCD chip, variable shear optics, a powerful diode laser array, and a computer control system with ISTRA analysis software. The sensor can be mounted on a tripod or integrated into robotic systems and can operate in daylight conditions.

Abbildung 1 Abbildung 2 > Very fast non-destructive Inspection of Composite Materials and Bondings Laser Shearography System Q-800 The Laser-Shearography-System Q-800 is a fully portable and compact measuring system for non contact, full field, and non-destructive inspection of any material. The system is best suited for inspection of complex materials and material combinations, i.e. composites, such as fibre reinforced plastics, honeycomb struc- tures, glare, etc. Proven Technique Very fast full-field Inspection Laser shearography inspection has been ap-proved by leading aircraft manufacturers as an inspection tool for production and maintenance applications. The Q-800 System allows detection of delami-nations, debondings, cracks, voids, impact damages, failed repair areas and other types of defects on components. The shearography inspection system delivers rapid information about the inspected components in very short time, with minimum preparation and measurement effort. Typical inspection times are 10 to 30 seconds per image. >
