The Elios 3, with its ability to access confined spaces and overhead measurement points,<strong> streamlines thickness gauging and corrosion surveys<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>In addition, it is equipped with an ultrasonic probe mounted on a smart arm with laser pointer, which provides<strong> precise visual guidance to better detail measurement points<\/strong>, with mounting options adaptable to <a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/articulo\/wet-h2s-damage-mechanism\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"articulo\" data-id=\"129321\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">complex industrial environments<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p>Optimal ultrasound transmission to the material under adverse tests is ensured with a remotely operated couplant dispenser, while each measurement can be labeled in a secure location remotely for later analysis. In addition, the <strong>Elios 3 drone <\/strong>can carry a cleaning module to prepare test surfaces, ensuring accurate and reliable measurement.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Analysis and evaluation capabilities under difficult environments<\/h2>\n\n<p>Patrick Th\u00e9voz, CEO and co-founder of  <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flyability.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.flyability.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Flyability<\/a><\/strong>emphasizes the importance of this breakthrough: &#8220;The ability to perform UTM in addition to visual inspections has been one of the most requested features by our customers.
