The DEKRA VT1000 is an advanced inspection tool designed to detect and analyze pitting corrosion on metal surfaces.

It utilizes high-resolution imaging and sophisticated software to identify and measure pits, providing detailed insights into the extent of corrosion.

Understanding Pitting Corrosion

Pitting corrosion is a localized form of corrosion that leads to the creation of small holes, or “pits,” in the metal.These pits can compromise the structural integrity of components, making early detection crucial.

Features of the DEKRA VT1000

• High-Resolution Imaging: Captures clear visuals of metal surfaces, enabling the detection of even minor pits.
• Advanced Lighting Systems: Enhances surface details by eliminating shadows, ensuring accurate image capture.
• Automated Analysis: Utilizes intelligent software to identify pits, measure their dimensions, and generate comprehensive reports.
• Portability: Designed for field use, allowing inspectors to perform on-site assessments efficiently.

Applications

The DEKRA VT1000 is employed across various industries, including:

• Oil and Gas: Inspecting pipelines and storage tanks for early signs of pitting.
• Aerospace: Ensuring aircraft components remain free from corrosion-related defects.
• Marine: Assessing the condition of ship hulls and offshore platforms.
• Automotive: Evaluating vehicle components susceptible to pitting.
