Automated Surface Inspection of Turbine Blades
The aerospace industry imposes the highest standards for quality, precision, and traceability. In particular, turbine blades must be reliably inspected for surface and geometric defects during manufacturing in order to meet the industry’s high safety and quality standards.
Automation W+R develops turnkey inspection systems for the automated optical surface inspection of turbine blades. Our solutions are based on high-resolution laser triangulation and can be flexibly integrated into existing manufacturing processes as in-line inspection systems.

Precise 3D Surface Inspection Using Laser Triangulation
Laser triangulation captures the surface of turbine blades noncontact and at high resolution as a three-dimensional elevation profile. This allows even the smallest deviations to be reliably detected and evaluated.
Typical inspection characteristics include:
- Surface defects and irregularities.
- Edges and transition areas.
- Geometric deviations, waviness, and form defects.
- Process-induced changes after machining or coating steps.
Automated evaluation ensures reproducible measurement results and an objective quality assessment of each individual component.
Turnkey Testing Systems for Your Manufacturing Operations
As a turnkey system integrator, Automation W+R implements complete inspection solutions—from sensors and mechanical components to proprietary software and integration into existing production lines.
Thanks to direct integration into the manufacturing process, test results are made available in real time.
Defined threshold values and automated pass/fail evaluation enable rapid responses to process deviations and support stable mass production.
Ensure quality directly within the manufacturing process in real time.
Complete Documentation and Traceability
All measurement data, test results, and relevant process parameters are uniquely assigned to the respective component and stored centrally. This comprehensive documentation supports traceability throughout the entire manufacturing process and meets the high quality requirements of the aerospace industry.
Your benefits:
- Automated 100% inspection of safety-critical components
- High-precision, non-contact 3D surface inspection.
- Repeatable and objective inspection results.
- Seamless integration into existing manufacturing processes.
- Full traceability and digital documentation.
- Increased process reliability and reduced scrap.
