The Center for Additive Technologies (CAT, part of the United Engine Corporation) has launched a domestic X-ray computed tomograph.
The equipment will allow quality control of aircraft engine parts up to 1.5 m in size and weighing up to 100 kg.
The device is used to detect and analyze internal volumetric defects in metal products. It also detects external imperfections that are difficult to detect during visual inspection.
In addition, the equipment can control the dimensions of internal elements and channels of blanks, and create 3D models of objects for subsequent reverse engineering.
Earlier www1.ru reported that a sample of the PD-35 aircraft engine passed the first stage of testing.
