Industrial Inspections

Gecko Robotics inspects industrial assets using non-destructive testing. We design, build, and operate robots to perform field inspections at industrial sites around the world.

BOILERS

Robots adhere to boiler walls scanning every inch to identify areas of degradation.

TANKS

Tanks can be inspected from the outside while full. No need for expensive scaffolding or emptying.

SCRUBBERS

Dry scrubber failure due to wall thinning is a well documented disaster. We provide a comprehensive report of wall loss.

Using high quality ultrasonic testing probes, inspectors utilize robots to gather thickness data around the complete surface of each water wall tube. We can service water wall tubes ranging from 1” to 4” in outer diameter. Measurements are collected at different angles by an array of eight ultrasonic sensors. With variable speeds up to 12 inches/second, our robots are equipped with a HD camera allowing for real time video surveillance. Measurements are calibrated and compared with handheld scanner readings to ensure the highest accuracy.

Using high quality ultrasonic testing probes, inspectors utilize robots to gather thickness data around the complete surface of each tank. The robot moves at speeds up to 12 inches/second and can move in any direction needed to navigate the tank. The robot adheres to the tank magnetically, removing the need for costly scaffolding. Tanks can be inspected externally while full or internally when cleaned.

Technology

Robots inspect critical assets using modular non-destructive testing payloads.

Wall climbing robots perform non-destructive testing on tanks, boilers, scrubbers, piping and more. Using different inspection payloads, the robots can inspect wall thickness, cracking, pitting, and other forms of degradation. With continuous data capture, robots can collect 100x more information while also performing the inspection on average 10x faster then previous methods.
