CTRL Commercial Solutions: Aviation

CTRL ultrasonic technology is an integral part of the quality control and aftermarket support of a variety of manufacturers.

The UL101 is used within the military and commercial organizations for readiness, routine maintenance, diagnosis and leak detection. Both small and large aircraft, fixed wing and helicopters benefit from using the CTRL UL101.

Implementation

Boeing - CTRL products are used at various production facilities and for numerous engineers for maintenance and support activities. The Boeing Space Program used the UL101 to test the main landing gear door in which the UL101 found 3 times as many leaks as the traditional methods.

Air Bus/Air France - The Intrinsically Safe UL101 is an approved inspection tool for all maintenance centers. The UL101 is used for quality control and support of A320 and A380 class aircraft.

Lockheed Martin - Due to comprehensive testing and work with NASA and Lockheed Martin, Lockheed designated the Intrinsically Safe UL101 for quality control and aftercare for the new F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. Testing and integration is on-going for legacy aircraft production & support.
