Engineering Documentation & Guides

What is published here

Five long-form guides cover the questions that arrive before an automated blade inspection programme is specified:

• The IEC 61400-5 acceptance requirements, translated into scan plans, coverage maps and record formats.
• Phased array setup for spar cap inspection, including focal law selection for thick unidirectional laminate.
• Automated NDT measured against manual inspection on repeatability and coverage.
• Robotic crawler access measured against rope access on safety, scan time and data quality.
• Leading edge erosion, and what drone imaging, thermography and automated ultrasonic testing each resolve.

Each guide states the standard it works to and the numbers it relies on. Where a figure is typical rather than guaranteed, the text says so.

How the numbers are grounded

Performance figures on this site come from a published system specification or a named standard, never from a rounded estimate. The 99.2% figure is a probability of detection on a 6 mm flat-bottom hole at 20 mm depth in glass-fibre laminate, and reaching it at 20 mm depth requires a focal law matched to the laminate thickness rather than a higher gain setting. A 60 m blade falls inside a 2 hour scan at 300 mm/s on the in-service crawler, and that number requires the compliant suspension to hold coupling through the leading-edge curvature.

What is not here

There are no customer case studies, no testimonial quotes and no client logo wall, because none of those have been released for publication. Claims of that kind are left out rather than written from a template.
