USL installs flatbed ultrasonic inspection system at Boeing Malaysia
16/04/2026
Ultrasonic Sciences (USL) has completed the installation of the first USL-FB40 flatbed inspection system at Boeing’s facility in Malaysia. The flatbed systems are designed for high-throughput ultrasonic inspection of composite flat panels and aerospace structures, featuring four waterjet pairs each capable of simultaneous pulse-echo and through-transmission inspection.
The overhead scanning architecture keeps all running gear out of the splash zone, extending system life and reducing maintenance requirements, while the compact, pillar-supported design minimises the civil works and site preparation required at the Boeing facility. Installation was completed efficiently thanks to the modular support structure.
USL is delighted to extend its relationship with Boeing through this installation and to see USL systems supporting composite manufacturing operations in Southeast Asia.
