Ballast Tank Inspection Robot
The Ballast Tank Inspection Robot features six degrees of freedom (DOF) for maneuverability and high-precision corrosion detection. Equipped with multiple sensors, it can autonomously navigate through manholes and perform fully automated ballast tank inspections, which can significantly improve the efficiency of structural safety monitoring.
Main Features
Key Performance Metrics
Engineered with a lightweight, pressure-resistant body, the robot combines high manoeuvrability with reliable sensing systems. It delivers stable navigation and accurate inspection results inside complex tank environments.
Tool Support Capability
The robot autonomously detects corrosion, structural weaknesses, and thickness variations while operating in confined ballast tank spaces. With advanced image recognition and spatial awareness, it ensures thorough coverage without manual intervention.
