M403T Fan Blade Scanner

Developed over 30 years the M403T fan blade scanner is the only system approved for the in-service inspection of Rolls Royce Trent series fan blades, RB211 fan blades & IAE V2500 Fan Blades.

The M403T has been designed to offer automated, in-service ultrasonic inspection of aero-engine fan blades which is a key component of aircraft safety. The system, which requires minimal operator intervention, calibrates itself using a specialist test piece and uses the calibration information to assess the results of fan blade inspections. Entry of a fan blade serial number leads to the automatic generation of pass or fail results. The M403T fan blade scanner is currently capable of inspecting fan blades from the following engines:
Trent 500
Trent 700
Trent 800
Trent 900
Trent 1000
