Non-Contact & Full-Field Imaging Systems
What Are They?
Non-Contact & Full-Field Imaging Systems represent a new frontier in structural diagnostics, enabling visualization and mapping of stress fields across surfaces without requiring direct physical contact. These systems utilize technologies like optical imaging, laser interferometry, thermography, and acoustic analysis to deliver detailed insights into structural deformation, load response, and internal stress concentrations. These solutions are critical in applications where traditional contact-based sensors are limited by surface accessibility, risk of sensor interference, or the need for real-time, wide-area monitoring. By capturing large datasets across entire surfaces, these tools enhance the ability to detect hidden flaws, monitor progressive stress development, and ensure the reliability of critical assets.
Our Offerings
Digital Image Correlation (DIC) Systems
High-resolution optical systems that compare digital images taken before and during loading to calculate full-field displacement and strain. Ideal for evaluating material behavior, fatigue progression, and fracture mechanics in research and industrial environments.
Photoelastic Coating Systems
These systems apply birefringent coatings to structural components, which reveal stress distribution patterns when illuminated with polarized light. Useful in complex geometries where traditional sensors may fail to capture the stress flow.
Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry (ESPI)
A laser-based technology that identifies subtle, micron-level surface deformations by analyzing interference patterns. It is often used in lab environments to visualize mechanical response and detect localized stress points with extreme precision.
Infrared Thermography for Stress Mapping
Uses thermal cameras to detect stress-induced temperature variations on material surfaces. This method is particularly effective for composite structures, aerospace components, and electrical systems under dynamic loading.
Ultrasonic Stress Mapping Tools
By measuring variations in ultrasonic wave velocity, these systems infer stress distribution in metallic and concrete structures. Suitable for residual stress evaluation, weld inspection, and in-service monitoring of aging assets.
