Zusammenfassung:The mobile non-destructive testing inspection system includes a mobile platform, a robotic arm mounted on the mobile platform, and an end effector for the robotic arm. The end effector includes a non-destructive testing (NDT) probe. As a non-limiting example, the NDT probe may be an eddy current testing probe. The mobile platform may be a robotic mobile platform under external control by a remote operator. The robotic arm is mounted on the mobile platform using a mounting plate, which is secured to an upper surface of the mobile platform, and includes a bracket or the like for attachment to a base of the robotic arm. The end effector is connected to an end connector of the robotic arm. The NDT probe of the end effector may be mounted on a support member, which may be selectively rotatable with respect to the end connector of the robotic arm.
