Power Generation
Since most of the infrastructure was built in the 60s and 70s, power plants (nuclear and hydroelectric) are aging, generating a constant demand for inspection. Exacerbating this issue is a shortage of skilled labor and an increase in experienced technicians retiring. This only adds to the pressure on NDT service providers, who must keep pace with projects and honor their contracts.
3D Scanners to Meet the Growing Demand for Inspection
To be adopted by the power generation industry, a measuring solution must be intuitive to learn and easy to use, requiring fewer certifications than traditional techniques. The technology must also be much faster than manual tools, offering rapid field deployment and instant reports directly accessible in the field. The solution should also give plant owners accurate and traceable data over time, even on curved and complex geometries.
