NDT Automation provides major aeronautics company wiyh ultrapac tank system

MISTRAS Group Inc. announces the delivery of a NDT Automation UltraPAC Scanning
UT System to Boeing Phantom Works, the advanced research and development unit at Boeing. Boeing is the world’s leading aerospace company and the largest manufacturer of
commercial jetliners and military aircraft combined.
The UltraPAC Scanning UT System is part of the NDT product line of immersion inspection and gantry systems. The 48” by 36” system includes the X, Y, Z axis and uses the UltraWin™ CScan based software.
With the addition of the UltraPAC system, Boeing will have the capability to test parts in immersion mode, thru transmission (TTU) squirter mode and non-contact (air coupled) mode.
This system is the first tank purchased from NDT Automation for Boeing Phantom Works.
“The UltraPAC will allow Phantom Works to do their own research and development of composites for both military as well as the 787,” said Dr. Gary Georgeson, NDE Technical Fellow of the Boeing Phantom Works. “This system will not only increase Boeing’s ability to support current Boeing programs, but also contribute to future programs.”
MISTRAS Group Inc. provides nondestructive testing products and services under well-known industryrecognized brand names including CONAM Inspection & Engineering Services Inc., Physical Acoustics Corporation, and Vibra-Metrics as well as regional or product specific brand names. MISTRAS provides Asset Inspection and Mechanical Integrity solutions to the Oil & Gas, Power Generation, Aerospace, Infrastructure and Manufacturing sectors as well as strategic on-line instrumentation that facilitates Plant Asset Management. In addition, MISTRAS provides Enterprise Solution Software that aids in the safe and profitable operation of industrial facilities worldwide.
