Successful partnership in space
After its selection at the R&D Challenge organized by the CNES in 2020, PYTHEAS Technology has developed an embedded non-destructive testing system for reusable satellites launchers. After 12 months of project development, our team is proud to deliver a promising solution. Great progress for the eNDT (embedded Non-Destructive Testing) which gives a real-time and continuous diagnosis of your equipment remotely without any human intervention !
Principle:
- Ultrasonic sensors network
- Structural damages detection, localization and characterization
- Associated embedded electronics
Technical results:
- Development of a piezoelectric-based embedded NDT solution
- Implementation on a payload adaptor
- Robustness evaluation based on vibration and temperature environment
New perspectives:
- Larger scale implementation
- Mechanical part imaging
- Integration in a composite structure
