Why choose the Elios 3 UT drone for ship inspections?

 

Built from the start to perform contact inspections, the Elios 3 is the ideal tool for close-up visual inspections and UT measurements even in confined and hard-to-reach areas. The UT payload developed in collaboration with Cygnus Instruments allows the drone to perform accurate ultrasonic thickness measurements on vessels and other equipment. Combined with advanced LiDAR technology, the drone can provide precise localization of all measurements and display them in the 3D model of the asset.

Elios 3 UT provides you with all the data needed for a CLASS inspection while leaving inspectors safely on the ground and saving you significant time and money

“The Elios 3 UT can navigate cargo and ballast tanks, reaching areas that are typically inaccessible without scaffolding, rope access, or rafts. This technology offers a safer alternative, reducing the need for workers to climb and access dangerous locations. As a result, inspections and measurements can be completed more quickly and efficiently.”
