Abstract

Propagation behaviour has a remarkable importance because the rate and the size of propagation may result in significant failures and thereby costs. It is a necessity that the determination of these insidiously proceeding cracks just in the right time and providing the sustainability of conformity to the specified quality standards in a safe way. This study plans to integrate a thermographic camera on to Mobile Robot in order to make easier to scan all area hard to reach. By this way non-destructive tests for fatigue detection and accordingly quality control of metal worked on can be performed efficiently. Conventional fatigue tests are costly and impractical. Correspondingly, these negative conditions force firms to replace parts ahead of time or belatedly. These two cases are both undesirable and make difficult to establish maintenance policy.
