Efficient Testing Solutions Textural Analysis & Defect Defection in PreformsDATA SHEET - EddyCus® CF ROB The EddyCus® CF ROB is a especially designed for the testing of shaped carbon fiber preforms. The testing system utilizes the electrical conductivity of the carbon fibers to gain structural information such as fiber orientation and fiber distribution. The high resolution EC-scans also enable defect detection, e.g. gaps, misalignment, wrinkles, overlaps, and often impurities, cracks and delamination. The EddyCus® system can be used at any stage in the production: for carbon fiber textiles, stacks, preforms or composites. Simply flat to curved parts or preforms can be checked by the flexible robotic solution. Therefore, it particularly helps process engineers or R&D focused groups to evaluate the results of individual production steps. The software allows to filter differently oriented layers or highlight anomalies such as defects. The user can classify the results to deepen the understanding of the material. www.suragus.com www.carbon-fiber-testing.com Innovation Award by Free State of Saxony 2013 1st Place
