Automated Inspection Systems

Evident designs and delivers automated inspection systems that meet the most challenging needs.

Our systems utilize phased array and eddy current array to inspect the full volume and surface of various products and profiles in many manufacturing industries, such as metal, aerospace, transportation, power generation, and oil & gas.

We introduced inspection systems with ultrasonic phased array technology in the early 2000s and have since delivered more than 100 systems worldwide.

Benefits of Evident automated inspection systems:

• All fields of expertise coordinated under the same roof
• Exceptional quality from a recognized brand
• Durable, scalable, and reliable solutions
• Ease of operation with minimum operator skill dependency
• High throughput

Project Management

Evident has the experience, knowledge, and resources in project management to ensure your solution is delivered on time and meets or exceeds the expected specifications and performances. Our dedicated project team coordinates all steps of the project in collaboration with the customer, from planning and definition to on-site integration and production start-up.

Inspection Method

Evident nondestructive testing (NDT) experts design all solution components and implement ultrasonic and eddy current approaches that are optimized for inspection of the part. This includes probe definition, modeling, and scan plan creation. Evident demonstrates the NDT performance of every automated inspection system, both before and after delivery.

Electronics

Evident instruments are designed for industrial applications and easy integration. They are built, tested, and validated according to the highest quality standards and compliant with relevant international standards (such as IP55, ISO, ASTM). Dedicated system instrumentation helps ensure high productivity and scalability, enabling different inspection modes to be used for a wide range of applications.

Software

Evident offers dedicated application software with user interfaces based on industry requirements with simple, straightforward operation. Interfaces with motion controllers and plant production management software are included, offering fully integrated inspection solutions.

Probes

Evident offers a wide variety of standard or custom ultrasonic and eddy current probes for various applications, including inspections requiring conventional ultrasonic, eddy current array, or advanced phased array techniques.

Automation

The Evident automation team designs and implements the motion of the probe sets and the parts to optimize inspection efficiency. A variety of hardware selection options are available, and the programming language is selected based on the customer’s needs and environmental specifics.

Mechanical

Evident's mechanical platform is developed to support the inspection method, providing optimized detectability, repeatability, and stability over its lifetime. Various mechanical platforms have been developed, including gantry bridge, pass-through, immersion tank, and robotic. The chosen platform is adapted to the specific applications and environmental conditions.

Electrical

Eelectrical interfaces are designed and assembled to simplify integration of the automated inspection system and meet the highest international design and safety standards, including, but not limited to, CE, CSA, UL, and ULC.
