Robot Inspection by TOFD &
PHASED ARRAY
Vicinay Cadenas has been the only manufacturer
to bring to the market the first robotic link Vicinay Cadenas is fully involved in the process
manipulator. Through this robotic system we of constant improvement of its inspection
have improved the ergonomics, productivity and systems. It was the first company in the industry
quality of our manufacturing. to introduce ultrasonic inspection techniques
For this application to be viable we have had that allow 100% analysis of the link in the weld
to install a combination of robotic and artificial zone. The system also enables the information
vision systems. and data obtained during these inspections to
be recorded and stored.

Process
One of the things that puts Vicinay Cadenas in its
own class is that it has its own engineering team
which has a wealth of know-how regarding the
production process.
The availability of this process allows Vicinay
to stay ahead of other competitors because we
have at our disposal all the means to continuously
innovate independently of others.
