Industry solutions, landing pages and articles on Olympus 35RDC — composite damage checker
Where it is used
Typical tasks
- Aircraft skin inspection after impact or collision
- Pre-flight and line checks of composite panels
- Checks after a dropped tool hits a composite part
- First screening before detailed inspection
Overview
The 35RDC is a simple ultrasonic instrument from Olympus (now the Evident brand) for finding hidden impact damage in solid laminate aircraft composite structures. After an impact there may be no visible mark, yet a delamination is already present inside. The 35RDC shows this immediately: Good, Bad or Beyond CAL.
How it works
- The instrument is calibrated on an undamaged area of the same part.
- The operator places the 5 MHz transducer on the area to check.
- If a reflection arrives earlier than from the back wall, there is a delamination inside and the instrument shows Bad.
Deviation thresholds from the calibration are programmable. Advanced mode offers an A-scan.
Technical specifications

For more complex tasks
For bonded and multilayer structures where the 35RDC is not enough, use the BondMaster 600 bond tester. For eddy current inspection of metal skins, the NORTEC 600.
