About waveCHECK™
waveCHECK relies on 3D optical scanning to help wind-turbine blade manufacturers quantify critical defects with unparalleled accuracy and improved confidence. The AR-enabled, “Go/no-go” visual feedback, empowers technicians and engineers to instantly measure the direction, width, height and key ratio criteria of wrinkles on composite material. This end-to-end digital workflow, helps operators quickly define repair strategies for wrinkle defects.
waveCHECK saves repair time, reduces rework costs and increases reliability of wrinkle measurements. This leads to higher safety standards and product quality in blade manufacturing.
