Abstrakt: This paper discusses a human robot collaborative application for the automation of NDT inspection processes of large parts. The system includes a movable structure incorporating a cobot with an additional axis for higher reachability and a control system that can generate robot scanning trajectories for large surfaces. The preliminary analysis indicates that the system can undertake the monotonous and time-consuming scanning process, allowing the NDT experts to focus on the review and interpretation of scanning results. A case study in the steel production sector is used to evaluate the benefits of such systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
