Facilitating the participation of Scatterin in the Swedish aviation industry ecosystem

Purpose and goal:

With an aim to improve readiness of Scatterin to become a long-term supplier to the aerospace industry, this demonstration and validation project with RISE and Brogren Industries helped Scatterin to demonstrate their technology, validate the performance of their data analysis software, and create a relevant showcase for future business development activities. We plan to use selected results in a scientific journal article.

Expected results and effects:

Residual stresses with high spatial resolution were measured in complex-shaped aerospace parts exposed to various manufacturing processes. The provided experimental data is compared with finite element method (FEM) simulations. The created showcase and validated performance will help Scatterin in creating new business opportunities in the Swedish aviation industry ecosystem.

Approach and implementation:

Mätningar av restspänningar i flygplansmotorer med komplexa former genomfördes på P07 High Energy Materials Science Beamline vid PETRA III, DESY i Hamburg. Flygplansmotordelarna tillhandahölls av Brogrens Industries och Unit Component Manufacturing. FEM-simuleringarna utfördes av RISE. Kalibreringen, integrationen och analysen av synkrotronröntgenstrålningsdata utfördes med hjälp av Scatterins mjukvara.
