Challenge

The client required a significant upgrade of their existing on-site penetrant testing (NDT) line to scale up the throughput and expand the overall scope of their non-destructive material evaluation processes. The integration needed to seamlessly fit into the current layout while enhancing both cleaning efficiency and inspection accuracy.

Solution

Proximo engineered and integrated specialized line extensions, including a custom-built penetrant immersion bath and an advanced post-test washing station utilizing an integrated rotating table mechanism. The setup was further optimized with professional-grade UV light sources to facilitate reliable and high-precision quality inspections.

Scope of Work

Custom engineering and production line modification services:

• Technical audit and mechanical adaptation design for the existing penetrant testing line
• Engineering and manufacturing of a dedicated chemical immersion bath for the penetrant fluid
• Design and integration of an automated component washer featuring an ergonomic rotating table
• Selection and tactical placement of specialized high-intensity UV inspection lamps
• On-site assembly, functional calibration, and process verification of the updated workflow

Outcome

The modified testing line successfully unlocked advanced non-destructive inspection capabilities for the client. The implementation of the rotating table washer combined with stabilized UV diagnostics drastically reduced cycle times and enhanced defect detection visibility, ensuring strict compliance with industrial quality standards.
