Sofema Online (SOL) www.sofemaonline.com reviews the Safety Precautions and Best Practices including preparation and cleaning related to the inspection of aviation composite during maintenance checks.

Introduction

Maintaining aviation composites involves thorough inspections and approved repairs when needed to ensure the structural integrity of the aircraft.

Inspection of aircraft composite materials should be performed with utmost care, strictly following safety precautions and adhering to best practices. This will ensure the aircraft's structural integrity, guaranteeing the safety of its operations.

Sofema Online (SOL) www.sofemaonline.com considers the fundamentals to provide a practical hands-on session to build process confidence and develop competence.

Introduction

In this practical hands-on session, we will focus on assessing the serviceability of composite materials using an aviation composite tap testing hammer. The tap testing method allows us to detect and evaluate such damage by analyzing the acoustic response of the composite material. Let's dive into the step-by-step procedure.
